What visitor say about Lubra Bon Community Homestay, Mustang
Lubra is a small village in one of the most beautiful locations in the world. I would have been content sitting quietly in the village or on nearby hill all day just taking it all in. My day however involved petting a few baby goats, bringing supplies to a monastery on top of a large hill, having tea with the monk's wife, visiting all the animals of my homestay just to say hi, waiting for the goats to arrive then attending to them, and last sitting by the stove waiting for the food to finish before having a standard local meal. This type of trip is not for everyone, but if prefer to experience local culture and make meaningful connections, then there could be nothing better.

Surrounded by the mountains of the Annapurna Range, Lubra (2,972 m) is a 12th century medieval Bon village said to be the last remaining place in Mustang where this pre-Buddhist religion is still followed. Legend has it that Bon is a religion older than Buddhism that was practiced in Tibet before Buddhism arrived there in the 7th century. Here beside the Annapurna Circuit in Lower Mustang, you are close to the Forbidden Kingdom of Upper Mustang.
