Question
The pilgrims of Kailash Mansarovar have to pass through which pass to enter Tibet?
Options:
A .  Rohtang
B .  Lipu likh
C .  Nathu la
D .  Khardungala
Answer: Option C
Answer: (c)
Nathu La is a mountain pass in the Himalayas. It connects the Indian state of Sikkim with China’s Tibet Autonomous Region. The pass, at 4,310 m above mean sea level, forms a part of an offshoot of the ancient Silk Road.
The pass would be particularly useful for pilgrims visiting monasteries in Sikkim such as Rumtek, one of the holiest shrines in Buddhism. For Hindus, the pass reduces the journey time to Mansarovar Lake from fifteen to two days.
