The areas of Lantang, Ganesh Himal and Helembu and the surrounding area comprising the rim of the valley. The TAMANGS were part of the 1953 Everest expedition lead by Sir Edmund Hillary and were once again placed in the history of Everest, when SAMBHU TAMANG, the 18 years old boy became the YOUNGEST person  (at the time) ever to reach the summit of EVEREST in 1973.
