Tiji Festival Trek in 2023

  • 18 Days

About Trip:

The Upper Mustang will observe the Tiji festival on the English dates of May 16, 17, and 18, 2023. Tiji will be observed on the fifth, sixth, and seventh of May in 2024. It takes place every year for three days, from the 27th to the 29th of the third month, according to the lunar calendar. The teahouses will determine if you can complete the entire walk.

Tenpa Chirims common name is Tiji (bstan pa spyi rim). It is one of the most well-known Himalayan festivals, and hundreds of tourists from all over the world eagerly anticipate it each year. The historic walled city of Lo Manthang observes it annually. The first independent monarch of Lo, Ama Pal, and Ngorchen Dorje Chang, the exalted being who introduced Buddhism to Mustang, were the ones who initially instituted the religious feast.

During the reign of Lowo Khenchen, son of the third independent monarch of Lo Tsangchen Tashi Goen, the Vajrakilaya rite, Tenchi, was introduced into practice. A group of individuals, comprising mediators or village chiefs from each community and the monks of Chode Monastery, are in charge of organizing this festival. For a long time, the festival was successfully run. The legend of chasing the demons out from Lo Manthangs holy ground dates back many years. A fruitful harvest is prayed for as well as the end of the dry season during the festival.
A colorful custom garment, dancing, singing, and dramatizations of the tale of divinity and his demonic father are all featured in this three-day festival.

We plan a personalized and group tour for the Tiji Festival in 2023. Because we are the most devoted trekking and tour company in Nepal, created at the initiative of the enthusiastic young native people of Mustang and Rolwaling, many tourists select us for Upper Mustang. Our entire trekking staff is from Upper Mustang, and our hiking guide will lead you through the beautiful Lo Kingdom while telling you about his customs and culture.
