In addition to the Everest, the Annapurna region belongs to the most popular trekking regions of Nepal, because of the Annapurna I (8’091 m) which is the tenth highest mountain in the world. It offers a fantastic view of Manaslu and Himchuli to the east and further north of the Himalayas to the dry Tibetan Plateau, a breathtaking scenery.
The name of Annapurna is composed of anna (food) and purna (filled); Annapurna is the food-giving goddess or the goddess of wealth.
