About 30km to the south of
Mt. Kailash, Lake
Manasarovar ( 4560m ), or
Maphamyumtso (Victorious
Lake) in Tibetan, is the
most venerated of Tibet's
many lakes, and one of the
most beautiful. It was said
that the waters of
Manasarovar are "like
pearls" and that to drink of
them erases the "sins of a
hundred lifetimes". |
