Day 5 Namche Bazaar/Thyangboche

Elevation: 3810m

The route from Namche to Tengboche route is unbelievably beautiful - the Dudh Kosi is far below and Thamserku, Kantega, Ama Dablam, Lhotse, and Everest rise in front. Woods, rhododendron forests, mani walls, chorten (stupas), and suspension bridges across the river make this a lovely walk. We crossed paths with the Yak trains on the way. The workhorses of the Himalayas

The walk was a little more than 9 km but we left at 0800 and arrived at 1500. Just in time for the afternoon meditation at the monastery.
