Chiwang Gompa – 5 Days
Trip Overview
It’s possible that Chiwang Gompa is a relatively lesser-known or newly established monastery in the area. If you are planning to visit or learn more about Chiwang Gompa in Phaplu, I recommend reaching out to local authorities, tour guides, or online resources for the most up-to-date and accurate information about its location, history, and visiting guidelines, as my knowledge is not current beyond September 2021 Chiwang Gompa in the Solu Khumbu region of Nepal.
