Visit Namche Bazaar in 360 :)
A journey to the Everest Base Camp - Day 3.
Namche Bazaar is a central hub in the Khumbu Valley. You will find excellent bakeries and many gear shops in case you are missing something. We even enjoyed a hot shower at our lodge for our first night!
Check out the cinema in Cafe de 8848, it is worth the stop.
Since we had an extra day in Namche, we enjoyed a movie viewing about Sherpas called 'Sherpas, The true heroes of Everest', while enjoying nice tea and food. It really got us excited to continue the adventure!
The viewing starts at 3 pm.

A journey to the Everest Base Camp - Day 3: Acclimatisation day at Namche
We dedicated our third day to acclimatize in Namche Bazaar; it consists of sleeping two nights at the same elevation while climbing at a higher elevation during the day, thus helping the body to get used to the high altitude. Great opportunity to discover the surroundings.
In the morning, we climbed to the Hotel View Everest at 3880 meters, where we enjoyed a hot tea on the terrace with beautiful views of the mountains from left to right Taboche, Nuptse, Mount Everest, Lhotse, Shartse, and Ama Dablam.

A journey to the Everest Base Camp - Day 2
Toward Namche Bazaar (approx 6 hours)
The second day promised to be a hard one, and it didn't disappoint.
Our destination was the village of Namche at 3340 meters, which was 800 meters of elevation in a single day, and we were barely used to the high altitude. I was overloaded, 14 kg on my back, I promised myself to be lighter for the rest of the journey. The trek is a constant climb of the Khumbu Valley, mostly through a dense forest.
Day 1: Departure to Phakding (approx 3 hours)
It is possible to suffer from altitude sickness from 2500 meters and above; thus, it is essential to sleep at a lower altitude than the highest point you reach in a day. For our first day, we decided to trek until the small settlement of Phakding, at 2610 meters, which was a proper warm-up for what was coming up next. The hike was an easy downhill through forests and small settlements.

In Myanmar, schooling is compulsory until the end of elementary school, probably about 9-10 years old. I personally saw a couple of schools where many teenagers were still studying. The literacy rate of Burma, according to the 2014 Burma Census stands at 89.5% (males: 92.6%, females: 86.9%). However, the annual budget allocated to education by the government is low (only about 1.2% is spent per year on education). English is taught as a second language from kindergarten and I must say most of the people I met could at least speak broken English.

Back from the mountains without internet.
Thanaka, a bright yellow paint that many in the country put on their faces (sometimes with elaborate patterns). It is made from ‘ground tree bark’ and serves as solar cream, insect repellent, perfume, skincare product, etc. You can find the thanaka powder in shops and just need to apply it with a little of water. Demonstration below 😉

It is a tradition to give rice to monks going from house to house. Here we actually see nuns who are dressed in pink. Often they would sing when passing, but they must have been shy this time 😉
