We continue driving until we reach the long suspension bridge at Jhinu. From there, our trek begins. Climbing uphill through Jhinu Danda, we reach the beautiful village of Chhomrong, a picturesque Gurung village with stunning views of the Himalayas.

This morning is especially significant, as we are about to reach our dream destination—Annapurna Base Camp (ABC). The dream we set out for is finally coming true.

After a short rest there, we continue our journey forward, witnessing stunning views of towering peaks, including Annapurna I (over 8,000 meters), Annapurna South, and many others. Finally, we set foot at Annapurna Base Camp, a place beautifully encircled by snow-covered mountains—a truly magical scene. We spend the rest of the day soaking in the dreamlike atmosphere, watching the clouds play hide and seek with the sun. As evening falls, the golden rays of the sun reflect off Machapuchare, and we end the night in awe of the surrounding beauty.
