The village is located at an altitude of 3440 meters. The village has everything you need for life - many shops, loggias, hotels, a school, several museums and monasteries. Electricity and mobile communication work, by the way, communication works well on almost the entire track to the base camp, there is an “airport” nearby that accepts only helicopters.

18. Any whim for your money. About prices. The price for a room in the loggia is the same throughout the track - 200 rupees. Food from 300 to 600 rupees per serving, depending on the altitude, a large thermos of tea from 400 to 800 rupees. Phone charger 200, warm shower 400. 100 rupees is about 1 bucks.

28. Below the village of Gumjung. It is there, in one of the monasteries, that the scalp of the Yeti is kept. I will write a separate post about this. And we go up to the observation deck.
29. One of the few places on the track where you can see Everest. In general, the plans are to reach Kala Patara (5545 m), from there you can see Everest a little better. If you have problems with mountain climbing, then you can generally walk to Namche and look at Everest from here, many do just that, but we have other plans :) In the photo, Everest (8848 m) is a small tip to the left of the center of the frame, Nuptse (7861 m), to the right of Lhotse (8516 m) - the 4th highest mountain in the world. On the right is Ama Dablam (6856 m).
30. Everest is the tip of our earth.

39. Amphiatro-like Namche Bazaar.
40. Territory of the Sherpa Museum.

42. As I said, the village is quite advanced (the largest on the track). In the evening we found an Irish pub.
43. And a "cool" Internet cafe.
44. Sherpas are big fans of photography and sometimes they ask to be photographed.
