Lukla has grown rapidly with the introduction of its airstrip, which has made the Everest region accessible to many people, not just mountaineers.
Once a tiny farming community, Lukla is now a large trekkers' town, with numerous accommodation options (most fairly simple), many shops (selling everything from batteries and soap, to yak hair gloves and knock-off North Face jackets) and even a couple of internet cafés.
