NEPAL Tengboche -- Aug 2007 -- Tengboche Monastery is a popular attraction of the Khumbu region and is usually quieter in the Monsoon months, as monks retreat into meditation. Sometimes, females are not allowed into the monastery during meditation periods in August. It is still open through most of this season though and usually a monk will glady show you around. Trekking the Everest region in the Monsoon months is becoming increasingly popular for some. While the views are not so spectacular as in the main seasons, the elusive, cloudy landscapes are enchanting. The Monsoon reveals a different side of the Everest region, with bright displays of flowers and less trekkers, allowing for a different trek to the usual one -- Picture by Jon Mitchell / Lightroom Photos
