EVEREST BASE CAMP THEME PARTY

BACKGROUND
Since it was discovered in 1852, the fascinating pyramid of rock that is Mount Everest has haunted the dreams of generations of explorers. From the expeditions of the 1920's, which provided the first blood offerings to the deity of the snows, to the attempts that brought Hillary and Tenzing to the top in 1953, to the "high altitude tourism" that now attracts roped parties of mountain climbers from every corner of the world.

The first ascent of Everest, far from marking an end to interest in the accessibility of the highest point on Earth, opened the floodgates to hordes of other climbers, trekkers, and tourists into the Solu Khumbu region, noticeably changing the local economy & lifestyle of the Sherpa people.

EVEREST BASE CAMP EVENING
The magic of the Everest Base Camp will be recreated for you at your hotel in Kathmandu. From the image of Lukla Airport at the entrance of the party venue to the minor details of a trekker's evening at the base camp, Guests will experience the thrill of an adventure night out.

The evening includes a Puja Ceremony to seek the holy blessings. This is followed by Sherpa Dance with the music of natural sound & monastery music.

Recommended dress code for the evening is trekker's gear. Regional specialty drinks & Nepali barbecue dinner is served.
