Mustang Caves
Mustang Caves, also known as the Sky Caves of Nepal, are a collection of 10,000 man-made caves nestled along the edges of the magnificent valleys of the Mustang district. It is one of the most beautiful historical sites in Nepal.
Archaeologists and researchers discovered preserved human remains and skeletons between 2000 and 3000 years old after years of excavating and tests. They discovered many more valuable items, including sculptures, manuscripts, antiquities, and Buddhist paintings dating from the 12th to 14th centuries.
