1000782 - NEPAL Namche Bazaar -- 16 Apr 2005 -- Aerial view of Namche Bazaar - a town in the Everest region situated at 3,400m. Behind is the Nangpa valley and the peaks visible are Mount Teng Ragi Tau, 6,943m (center), Mount Langmoche Ri, 6,611m (centre right), Mount Pamalka, 6,344m (right) and Mount Parchamo, 6,273m (left). The town serves as a regional capital of sorts (like Lukla), having a large market on Saturdays which brings Dropka traders over the Nangpa La pass from Tibet. Namche is also the starting point of many expeditions and treks -- Picture © Jon Mitchell / Lightroom Photos
