Namche Bazaar (3,440m)

Namche Bazaar is the vibrant center of the Everest region. Located at an altitude of 3,440 meters it is surrounded by magnificent snow-capped Himalayan peaks. Since the early days of Himalayan exploration, it has served as the main trading and resting hub for countless trekkers, climbers, traders, and local Sherpa communities who are travelling through the Khumbu Valley. Once known primarily as a historic trading center connecting Nepal and Tibet, Namche Bazaar has gradually developed into a lively mountain town where visitors can find comfortable lodges, restaurants, bakeries, trekking gear shops, banks, internet facilities, and almost every essential service required during the Everest View Trek Nepal. 

Despite modern changes, Namche still hold its Sherpa culture, warm hospitality, and traditional mountain culture while providing magical views of the Himalaya from all directions. Trekkers stay here at least one full day in Namche for acclimatizing their body with altitude before continuing to higher altitudes.

Monastery, Irish Pub, Café, Wood fire pizza center, National Park Center, Sherpa Museum and local markets are key highlight of the Namchebazaar.

Khumjung Village and Hillary School

The village is surrounded by picturesque mountains, stone-made houses, agricultural lands, old monasteries, and more, giving trekkers a peaceful opportunity to experience real life and culture of the Khumbu region outside the bustling town of Namche Bazaar.

There are many interesting places to see in Khumjung Village; one of them is Hillary School, which was opened in 1961 by Sir Edmund Hillary for his lifelong support of local communities through education. One more exciting spot to visit is Khumjung Monastery. It holds the famous Yeti Scalp in its collection, drawing the curiosity of trekkers and researchers from different parts of the world.

It is situated at an altitude of 3,867 meters under the magnificent backdrop of Mount Ama Dablam, Thamserku, and other Himalayan peaks. It is the largest monastery in the Khumbu Region, where monks still continue centuries-old Buddhist traditions and many visitors spend several days here seeking for peace and spiritual experience in the heart of the Everest Region.

Tengboche Monastery is also well known for the colorful Mani Rimdu Festival and its historical connection with Rongbuk Monastery in Tibet, making it an important cultural and spiritual landmark during the Short Everest View Trek and other Everest trekking adventures.
