Mustang was once an independent kingdom, although closely tied by language and culture to Tibet. From the 15th century to the 17th century, its strategic location granted Mustang control over the trade between the Himalayas and India. At the end of the 18th century the kingdom was annexed by Nepal and became a dependency of the Kingdom of Nepal since 1795

Foreign visitors have been allowed to the region since 1992, but tourism to Upper Mustang is regulated due to its proximity to sensitive Tibetan border. Life in Mustang is full of hardships but the beauty of the natural landscape is what draws tourists from all over the world to this land.

Mustang is rich in Buddhist culture, similar to the area of the Tibet Autonomous Region of the People's Republic of China. It is an alternate way to experience the Tibetan culture .
