Lawudo Gompa serves as a serene meditation location and hermitage for Lama Zopa (of the Kopan Monastery in Kathmandu), an eminent personality in Tibetan / Himalayan Buddhism. Nestled away from the bustling tourist areas in the Mt Everest vicinity, the site offers a tranquil environment complemented by breathtaking mountain scenery. The stewardship of Lawudo falls to Lama Zopa’s sister along with a few faithful attendants who maintain a modest monastery and several huts for guest accommodation. The trek that includes Namchebazaar and Everest Panorama is devised to impart an authentic experience of the Himalayan cultural legacy, which is uncommon in the more commercialized trekking ventures.
