The
oldest trade centre !
Nestled at an altitude of 3440m, Namche is the capital
of Khumbu valley and the oldest trade centre of the region.
Every Saturday there is a mass gathering in the local
markets as people from different parts of the region
arrive, to trade and socialize. It becomes even more
crowded during the tourist season, as it is the main
junction of trekkers from various routes.
The resort
is located just above the traditional village in an
idyllic location. From here you can enjoy the panoramic
views of the village and its soothing landscapes.
An extra day is ideally required to acclimatize, visit
the Khunde Hospital and learn about the ethnic Sherpa
Culture once you reach Namche.
