La Marsyangdi est une rivière du Népal longue d'environ 150 km. Née de la confluence de deux rivières de montagne dans le massif des Annapurna, près du village de Manang, elle traverse les districts de Manang puis de Lamjung avant de se jeter dans la Trishuli.

india incredible....Nainital is a Himalayan resort town in the Kumaon region of India’s Uttarakhand state, at an elevation of roughly 2,000m. Formerly a British hill station, it’s set around Nainital Lake, a popular boating site with Naina Devi Hindu Temple on its north shore. The beautiful lake resort town nestles amidst seven hills in a lush valley at an altitude of 1938 meters. In 1841, the British first discovered Nainital as a holiday resort. Today, the town has emerged as one of the most important hill resorts of India

 

"Naini" is derived from the temple of goddess Naini which was built on the bank of the lake but later got destroyed due to land slides in the year 1880, The place is mentioned in Skand Puran as 'Trishul Sarover'. Tri Rishi (three sages Atri, Pulastiya and Pulha) had come there for pilgrimage while they were at Gagar range, they felt thirsty and could not find any water. They thought of Mansarover and dug a hole which at once got filled with water.

 

The boats are called shikaras and resemble the wooden boat found on Dal Lake of Srinagar, India.

Trisul - The Himalayan Peak

Trisul is a group of three Himalayan mountain peaks of western Kumaun, with the highest (Trisul I) reaching 7120m. The three peaks resemble a trident - in Hindi/Sanskrit, Trishula, trident, is the weapon of Lord Shiva. The Trishul group forms the southwest corner of the ring of peaks enclosing the Nanda Devi Sanctuary, about 15 kilometres (9 mi) west-southwest of Nanda Devi itself. The main peak, Trisul I, was the first peak over 7,000 m (22,970 ft) to have ever been climbed, in 1907.

 

Trisul I 7,120 m

Trisul II 6,690 m

Trisul III 6,007 m

 

Trisul I

T. G. Longstaff made the first climbing reconnaissance of Trisul, in September 1905, focussing on the western and southern sides. He returned in 1907 with two other Britons, three Alpine guides, and a number of Gurkhas. They ascended through the Rishiganga valley, to the north of the peak, onto the Trisul Glacier, which lies on the east side. From there they climbed the northeast flank to the north ridge, reaching the summit on 12 June. At the time Trisul was probably the highest mountain to have been climbed.The climb was noted also for the first use of supplementary oxygen in a major climb. During the 1950s Harold Williams led Indian Army expeditions to the summit.

 

Routes on the west face and south ridge of Trisul I have also been climbed. The west face was first ascended in 1976; this was the first ascent of the main summit not using the first-ascent route.

 

Trisul II and III

Trisul II and Trisul III were first climbed in 1960 by the Yugoslav team JAHO I (sl). They climbed from the Bidalgwar glacier, achieving the summit of Trisul II via the southern ridge and Trisul III via the north ridge.

Les lacs de Gosainkund (aussi écrit Gosainkunda, Gosain Kunda, ou Gosaikunda) sont plus particulièrement notoires du fait de l'un de ces lacs, situé à 4 380 m d'altitude dans le District de Rasuwa au Népal. Il est la source de la rivière Trisuli. Le lac reste gelé pendant six mois en hiver, d'octobre à juin.

On dit que le lac a été formé à partir du creusement de la terre par le trident (trishula) du dieu hindou Shiva, après qu'il a bu le poison de Samudramanthan et voulait désespérément de l'eau froide pour étancher la chaleur écrasante du poison.

Lord Shiva is one of the principal deities in Hinduism, revered as the "Destroyer" in the holy trinity, or Trimurti, which also includes Brahma (the Creator) and Vishnu (the Preserver). Shiva is a complex and multifaceted god, embodying both ascetic and householder aspects. He is often depicted with a third eye, a crescent moon on his head, and a snake wrapped around his neck. His primary consort is Parvati, and together they have two sons, Ganesha and Kartikeya.

 

Some key aspects of Lord Shiva include:

 

The Destroyer and Transformer: While he is known as the destroyer, his role is to remove the old and make way for transformation and new creation.

 

Meditation and Asceticism: Shiva is often shown in deep meditation, symbolizing detachment and spiritual wisdom.

 

Lord of Dance (Nataraja): One of the most famous representations of Shiva is as Nataraja, the cosmic dancer, who is believed to represent the cycle of creation, preservation, and destruction.

 

Symbols:

 

Trident (Trishul): Represents the three forces of creation, preservation, and destruction.

Damaru (Drum): Symbolizes the cosmic sound and rhythm of the universe.

Ganga: The river goddess Ganga, which flows from his matted hair, signifies purity and divine flow.

Blue Throat: This is due to the legend where Shiva drank the poison during the churning of the ocean (Samudra Manthan) to protect the world.
