Pangboche or Panboche is a village in Khumjung Village Development Committee of Solukhumbu District in Province No. 1 of Nepal at an altitude of 13,074 feet (3,985 m).[1] It is located high in the Himalayas in the Imja Khole valley, about 3 kilometres northeast of Tengboche and is a base camp for climbing the nearby Ama Dablam and trekking. It contains a monastery, famed for its purported yeti scalp and hand, the latter of which was stolen.[2] The village is inhabited mainly by Sherpas, and Sungdare Sherpa, a native of the village, held the record for summiting Everest five times in the Sherpa climbing history and in the world history of mountaineering in 1989.[3] The Pangboche school was built by Sir Edmund Hillary's Himalayan Trust in 1963. North of the village is the Dughla lake and pass.
