The World's Most Dangerous Airport
✈️Lukla Airport in Nepal has often been labeled “the world’s most dangerous airport” and here’s why….
Monkeys roam in the hundreds here at the Swayambhu Temple, giving destination the popular name, "Monkey Temple." Over the years, the monkeys have become so comfortable with the tens of thousands of people visiting this UNESCO world heritage site that they will snatch food right out of your hand with no reservations. However, it is important to stay aware! As cute as they can be, they have been known to stick their hands in your bag and dart off with your belongings!
