A Mysterious Kingdom On The Border Between China And Nepal, Which Has Been Independent For 600 Years, Fascinated Travelers！

There is a mysterious kingdom on the border between China and Nepal, which had previously been banned in Nepal for more than 600 years. This is a place with the most mysterious and picturesque scenery, fascinated by travellers. Mustang is located on the border between Tibet and Nepal, and is historically part of Tibet. It used to be an autonomous kingdom of Nepal.

Mustang is the ancient barony, it is very close to Tibet in language and culture. It was annexed by Nepal in the 18th century. The realm of the kingdom was reduced to the area around the north end of the city of mustang, known as the Luo kingdom, and was once the only autonomous kingdom in Nepal.

On October 7, 2008, the Nepalese government ordered the abolition of the king's throne in the northern region of mustang, and stopped the existence of the kingdom of mustang.

Although it is the territory of Nepal, it is a rich Tibetan culture area, known as "Tibet beyond the Tibetan border". After the peaceful liberation of Tibet, in 1960 or so, mustang was a military restricted area for more than a decade.

Mustang has an area of 3571 square kilometers, a population of about 15000 people, at an average altitude of more than 2,500 meters, the climate type is plateau mountain climate, and Mustang means fertile plain in Tibetan.

People here need internet and Western medicines, and children have begun to leave their homes and receive better education in government schools, but these schools refuse to teach in their mother tongue.

The old man in mustang is worried that their traditions and cultural heritage are beginning to disappear and eventually die out. The picture shows the people of mustang who are drawing tang cards.

Some secular monks also began to tell stories of their fathers in their native language, hoping to promote their culture in this way. Every Wednesday night, they sit around and talk to each other about their stories of the lhoba life.

It was not until 1992 that mustang was opened to the public, so the local people's living habits, still remain in the hundreds of years ago. But the foreign visitors need to get a permit to enter, so far there are only 30 Chinese people who have been to mustang.

When the two feet on this taboo and mystical land begin, everything became interesting and unbelievable. The encounter in the underworld, the love of the forbidden land, the silence under the snow mountain, the shock of the rare beauty, the simplicity of the food. These pieces meet and fuse, like a frozen movie, simple but meaningful.
