RASUWA, May 20: The season for travel to Mansarovar, a popular religious destination in China, has begun. 



The Rasuwagadhi border point has seen increasing mobility of people traveling to the Kailash Mountain (Parbat) and Mansarovar – considered to be the abode of Lord Mahadev (Shiva) via Trishuli, Dhunche and Syafrubesi.

Chief of the Immigration Office, Rasuwagadhi, Murari Niraura said that on an average 40 passengers are traveling to Mansarovar via the border point every day. 


Mansarovar is 950 kilometers away from this border point. Chief Niraula said although there are Rasuwagadhi and Hilsa (Humla) border points to go to Mansarovar from Nepal, Rasuwagadhi has witnessed a rising number of visitors to religious sites as it is geographically closer to Kathmandu. 


According to him, daily around 50 Chinese nationals have been entering Nepal through the border point.
