Korala or Kora La or Koro La (Nepali: कोरला; literally Kora Pass) is a mountain pass between Tibet and Upper Mustang. At only 4,660 metres (15,290 ft) in elevation, it has been considered the lowest drivable path between Tibetan Plateau and the Indian subcontinent.[1] It currently serves as a vehicle border crossing between China and Nepal.[2][3] Korala in Mustang is the fourth border point that Beijing has reopened after the Rasuwa-Kerung, Tatopani-Khasa and Yari (Humla)-Purang.
