Dugla to Tengboche

We descend into the Pheriche valley and visit the ancient monastery before joining the main Imja Khola Valley which we follow down to Pangboche.



We have time to admire the porters who carry enormous loads on their backs by a band around their foreheads.  These small, wiry people are so strong, they are trully amazing.  They sing while they work or listen to music they have recorded onto their mobile phones.

We walk through peaceful rhododendron forests, through the village of Devoche from where we climb steeply back to Tengboche.
