The renowned American newspaper “The New York Times” has spotlighted Nepal’s Mustang as a must-visit destination for travelers in 2024. Featuring in its prestigious list of 52 places around the globe, The New York Times has underscored Mustang’s significance as a tourist gem nestled in Nepal’s Trans-Himalayan region.

Described as an ancient Himalayan kingdom steeped in tradition and rural charm, Mustang has steadfastly preserved its cultural heritage over centuries, as noted by The New York Times.
