Mount Everest is the highest mountain in the world. It stands at a towering height of 8,848.86 meters (29,031.7 feet) above sea level. This majestic mountain lies in the Himalayas, which is a mountain range in Asia. In this article, we will know about the location and some key facts about the Mount Everest.
Mount Everest is located on the border between two countries: Nepal and China (Tibet). The summit of the mountain marks the boundary between these two countries.
In Nepal, the southern side of Mount Everest is known as the main route for climbers. The famous base camp on the south side of Everest is located in Nepal at an altitude of around 5,380 meters (17,600 feet). It is from here that many climbers start their ascent.
The northern side of Mount Everest is in Tibet, which is an autonomous region of China. The base camp on this side is located at a higher altitude, around 5,200 meters (17,060 feet). This side is more difficult to climb, and fewer people attempt it.
Mount Everest is not only a popular destination for climbers, but it is also a significant cultural and spiritual symbol for people in Nepal and Tibet. It is known as Sagarmatha in Nepal and Chomolungma in Tibet, both names meaning “Mother Goddess of the World.”
