Nestled in the heart of the mid-western Himalayas, Tsum Valley is one of Nepal’s best-kept secrets. Located in the northern part of Upper Gorkha, near the Tibetan border, this isolated valley is often described as a "Secret Sacred Hidden Himalayan Happiness Valley" or "Hidden Visible Shangri-La." Though it was only opened to tourists in 2008, Tsum Valley has been home to rich traditions, diverse landscapes, and spiritual significance for centuries.
