Mount Everest, Nepal

The highest peak of the planet, Mount Everest in Nepal is one of the true miracles on earth. Local Tibetan people call it Zhomolungma (meaning 'The Divine Mother of Life'), and the elevation of Everest is estimated to total 29,029 ft (8,848 meters). Actually, the mount is located right on the border between Nepal and China, and since the view to Mount Everest from the Nepalese side is blocked by two other high mounts, those who want to observe the highest peak of the world should approach it from the Chinese side. Everest is surrounded by many other high peaks located right near it, like Makau Mount, Changtse Mount, Lhotse Mount, Nuptse Mount, Gyachung Kang, Cho Oyu, and a few others, which are all a bit lower than Everest but 4 of them are on the list of the world's highest mountains in the world.

Mount Everest has been the attraction for thousands of climbers and for many decades people tried to reach the summit of the mount. The first serious expeditions to reach the summit of Everest took place in the late 1920s, but the first successful attempt to reach the peak is dated by 1963, when a Nepalese and New Zealander mountaineers managed to reach the summit. Unfortunately, a really large number of climbers and mountaineers have lost their lives while trying to climb Everest. It is estimated that in 2019 about 300 people died there. Mount Everest is located in the region known as Mahalangur Himalaya which is in the northeastern part of Nepal bordering the Tibet Autonomous Region in southwestern China.
