Once it was a part of the Tibetan Empire, later it separated out as an independent kingdom in the 14th century, with King Ame Pal making Lo-Manthang as his capital. It has been a vital trade route exchanging salt, wool, and grains between Nepal and Tibet for ages. A long time restricted to outsiders so that the culture and tradition might be preserved, it opened in 1992.
