Day 2: Fly to Everest, Kalapatthar photogragh and back to Kongde or Everest view for breakfast and back to Kathmandua

We will take an early morning flight from Tribhuvan International Airport at around 7.30 A.M in the morning. We then board our chopper, which will take us to Everest Base Camp. After we take off from the airport, we can enjoy the remarkable birds-eye view of 'temple city' Kathmandu, and slowly, after gaining some height or elevation, you can be able to enjoy the splendid views of Mt. Langtang, Mt. Ganesh, Mt. Gauri Sankar, Mt. Makalu, Mt.Dorje Lakpa, Mt. Lhotse, Mt. Nuptse, and even Mount Everest. We will take a brief break or a time to refill the gas at Lukla airport, then we will pursue towards Kalapatthar. The view from this vantage point is invincible, even better than Everest Base Camp itself, as you will have the closest view of Mt. Everest, Mt. Cho-oyu, Mt. Pumori, and nine other abutting peaks. You will have a brief time for mandatory snaps of this wonderful moment in the vicinity of the gorgeous mountains.

Now, it's time to head towards another pristine destination of this entire Everest region, which is 'Gokyo Lake'. Witness the primeval blend of blue and green water in the alluring lake. They form the highest freshwater lake system in the world, situated roughly around 5,000 meters. We will spend a few minutes here admiring the beauty of the Himalayas and the pristine Gokyo Lake before flying back to Kathmandu.

Pashupatinath Temple, dedicated to Lord Shiva, is a sacred Hindu pilgrimage site situated on the banks of the Bagmati River. Here, amidst the bustling activity of devotees and sadhus, one can witness age-old rituals and ceremonies, offering a glimpse into Nepal's vibrant religious traditions.
