Tengboche is considered to be the midway point of Lukha and Everest base camp. Since the elevation is high it is below freezing in the winters, whereas the temperature remains around 20’s in the summer. The rhododendron blossoms of the spring in this village is highly acclaimed by the travellers. The accommodation in Tengboche is nice but basic but you can yet rejoice bakery goodies in the only bakery shop.
