Everest from **Kala Patthar (black rock),** an optimally preferred distance, and view the gigantic Everest and relish its empowering glory - quite an extraordinary feeling. The highest elevation you reach on these 14 days is 5545m. Though Mt. Everest is the most alluring aspect of this trek, other famous peaks like **Mt. Ama Dablam**, **Mt. Lhotse**, **Mt. Nuptse**, **Mt. Lobuche**, **Mt Tawache**, etc, that also rise high, touching the skies in the vicinity, could be an extra treat to your eyes. ## Buddhist Religion in the Everest Region Tengboche monastery is another point of attraction for up-close views of the surrounding mountains, and **Namche Bazaar**, the region's business hub, is the gateway to Everest. A strong presence of Buddhism can be felt in most places on your **Everest base camp - 14-day trek route**. The colorful prayer flags dancing with the flow of gentle to temperate winds, stupas, monasteries, and Mani stones on the trekking trails reflect the strong culture within the region. The terrain is also unique, surrounded by alpine forests, a 100% Sherpa village with Sherpas, and their simplicity within this harsh environment of Mother Nature are some noticeable features of trekking to the base camp. ## **Major Attractions of the Everest Base Camp Trek** - Flight to & from Lukla with a birds-eye view of the beautiful landscape and mountainous terrain. - View of the several eight-thousanders, including the mighty Everest. - Stopping places like Namche Bazaar, Syangboche, Thamel, etc. - Attractive Sherpa people with heart-warming cultures, traditions, and hospitality - Buddhist community with its own unique and ancient lifestyle - **Sagarmatha National Park** – one of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites of the world - Monasteries like Rongbuk, Tengboche, Dingboche, Thame, Khumjung, Pangboche, and many more - Himalayan views from Kalapatthar and Everest Base Camp - Tea houses, hotels, and lodges where you can acclimatize and take a rest - Museum, library, and workshops (like Sherpa Culture Museum, Khumbu International Library, and Pyramid International Laboratory) - Khumbu Icefall and Glacier - Peak climbing spots and passes crossing ## **EBC Trek Difficulty and Preparation** Everest Base Camp Trek is categorized as a moderate level in intensity or difficulty level.
