Sunrise In The Himalayas

Nargokot Sunrise


I took this photograph whilst trekking in Nepal some years ago.

Nargokot is a favourite haunt of tourists who go there specifically to experience a sunrise over the Himalayas. This one was actually one of the easier ones to view as I was able to watch if from my Hotel balcony. 😁

Other sunrises involved getting up really, really early and taking a mini bus to a suitable site. Not so much fun in the very cold light of dawn although the views were, of course, were spectacular!

Amazing landscape. This reminded me of the famous paintings of the artist Nicholas Roerich. He painted a lot of landscapes of the Himalayas. Great shot, @gillianpearce

Thank you @madlenfox. I'm not very knowledgeable when it comes to art and have never heard of Nicholas Roerich! 😁

It looks something like this. Here are two of his works :)


Thank you @madlenfox for taking the trouble to find these. That's very kind of you. 😊

That view is just beautiful. Seems like you had one mighty fine hotel there.

The hotel itself was actually quite a cheap one @paparodin but the views were amazing. 😁

Thank you for visiting and for leaving a comment.

You would do the same for me.

I need to travel myself so I can make such astounding experiences myself.

A pre-dawn minibus through the Himalayas does not sound fun. Lovely photo :)

Yeah. I'm not keen on getting up that early in the cold but it was worth doing overall @steven-patrick. 😊

You made me want to go there! Amazing!

If you get the chance you should definitely go @kethos! 😊

I can feel the atmosphere. Excellent photo :)

Thank you @margaretwise. Glad it works for you! 😊

Thank you for visiting @mehakbhatti. Glad you like the photograph! 😊

wow, what an immense experience that must have been. incredible picture.

It really was an incredible experience @d3p0. I am hoping to go back to Nepal one day but there are other places I haven't been yet that I'd like to get to so not sure if I'll make it! 😢
