Ghami Mani Wall
घमी
Said to be the longest mani wall in Nepal, a stone wall about 300 m long carved with the six-syllable mantra, set against red and gray cliffs.
The mani wall south of Ghami village is about 300 m long. It is built from countless stone slabs carved with “Om mani padme hum.” Legend links it to the same tale of Padmasambhava subduing demons as the Dhakmar Red Cliffs, and says the wall was formed from the demon’s entrails. When walking along the wall, keep it on your left and circle clockwise. Ghami is a large village on the trekking route, with guesthouses and a small temple. Jeeps often stop here for lunch, and traditional wheat fields and threshing grounds can be seen nearby.
