The Kyanjin Gompa
Hands down! Kyanjin Gompa is our centerpiece destination in the Langtang Valley trek, a major attraction not to be left out. Is it a refreshing rural enclave, a side excursion destination, or a place famous for its culinary or panoramic views? It turned out to be all of them. Kyanjin Gompa is a relic of a 1700s Buddhist monastery (Gompa) overlooking the valley cradle of Kyanjin. The monastery is a coveted Himalayan museum that has preserved the dust of memories in its every recess and corner. It also reflects the influence of Tibetan culture, giving sense to the valley's closeness to Tibet. If you're eager to try traditionally made hygienic Yak Cheese, it’s the best available place around the Langtang area. The locals there are cheeky and friendly. So, they might even offer you a delicacy.
