🇳🇵 . Day 5 - Everest Base Camp Trek - Fly fr 🇳🇵
.
Day 5 - Everest Base Camp Trek - Fly from Kathmandu (KTM) to Lukla (LUA).
.
👍🏼 यह उड़ान खतरनाक है लेकिन मजेदार भी है। दिल्ली से काठमांडू और फिर लुक्ला के लिए उड़ान भरें।
.
📍Officially known as Tenzing-Hillary Airport, Nepal's busiest domestic hub. At 2846m (9337ft), the short runway is only 527m (1729ft) with a 12% gradient which makes landing risky. 
.
✈️ Considered the most dangerous airport in the world, flight schedules are determined by the weather in both Kathmandu and Lukla. With no fixed seating, sit on the left-hand side approaching Lukla for the best views of the Himalayas and the opposite side when leaving Lukla. Over 60 flights per day operate during the peak trekking season, with an average flight time of around 35 minutes.
.
🚁 The helicopter company @air_dynasty_heli offers services to and from Lukla, including emergency evacuations and charter flights.
.
👨‍✈️ Only experienced pilots who have completed over 100 short takeoff and landing missions can operate here. The hair-raising approach leaves no margin for error. Airline services include @nepalairlinesra @yetiairlines 
.
⛔️ Accidents and incidents do occur, so safety is paramount.
.
🧳 Due to the flight, rules on baggage weight are strict. Checked-in luggage is a maximum of 10kg, and carry on is 5kg. Extra weight is chargeable but not advised.
.
Fun fact: Only radio communication is used for landings and take-offs with no air navigation or radar system.
.

📍Thamel is the biggest tourist market in Nepal and lies in the heart of Kathmandu. It is the tourism centre of the Kathmandu Valley. Here are one can find budget-friendly guesthouses, trekking companies, shopping centers, restaurants for locals and tourists alike.
.
.
🃏 Freak Street, located south of Durbar Square is another interesting part of Kathmandu. This is named after the large number of hippies on the hippie trail residing here in the 1960s and 1970s. 
.
.
🛵 The best and quickest way to get around the city is by scooter taxi. Richshaws and car taxis are slow as the roads are often gridlocked and travelling just a few kilometres can take time. 
.
.
Fun fact: In 2011, Thamel was declared a full Wi-Fi zone, being the first one in Nepal.

🇱🇹 . 📍Located in southeastern Lithuania, 🇱🇹

📍Located in southeastern Lithuania, Trakai, famous for its 14-century castle on an island at Lake Galvé, was once home to the great dukes of Lithuania. The castle is surrounded by water on all sides, making it an excellent strategic location. Access is via a footbridge.
.
.
🏰 Built in several phases, the castle fell into a state of disrepair, however during the 19th-century plans were prepared to reconstruct the castle. Work began in earnest in 1952 and finished in 1961. Once used as a prison, the castle is now a museum.
