Mount Kailash  is considered as a sacred place in four

religions—Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism and Bön
faith... It is the 
only 
significant mountain peak never to be scaled by man as
a deference to 
Buddhist and Hindu beliefs.

In Hinduism
According to Hindu mythology, Shiva, the destroyer of
evil and sorrow, 
resides at the summit of a legendary mountain named
Kailāśā. This 
Kailāśā is regarded in many sects of Hinduism as
paradise, the 
ultimate 
destination of souls and the spiritual center of the
world.

Some traditions also aver that the mountain is Shiva's
linga and Lake 
Manasarowar below is the yoni of His consort.
According to one 
description[citation needed] found in the Puranas,
Mount Kailash is the 
center of the world, its four faces are made of
crystal, ruby, gold, 
and 
lapis lazuli. It is the pillar of the world; is 84,000
leagues high; is 
the center of the world mandala; and is located at the
heart of six 
mountain ranges symbolizing a lotus. The four rivers
flowing from 
Kailash then flow to the four quarters of the world
and divide the 
world 
into four regions.

In Buddhism

The Tantric Buddhists believe that Kailash is the home
of the Buddha 
Demchok (also known as Demchog or Chakrasamvara)[1],
who represents 
supreme bliss. It is said that Milarepa, champion of
Tantric Buddhism, 
arrived in Tibet to challenge Naro-Bonchung, champion
of the Bön 
religion of Tibet.
