The influx of Indian religious tourists to Mansarovar Kailash has begun with the onset of the rainy season, with 169 pilgrims arriving in four days. Flights from Nepalgunj to Simkot and then to Hilsa facilitate the journey to the pilgrimage site in China. Despite challenging weather, some travelers were unable to proceed due to a lack of necessary permits. The number of Indian tourists is expected to rise further following the reopening of the Hilsa pass post-COVID-19 restrictions.
