Located in the Himalayas on the border between Nepal and China, it is part of the Himalayan mountain range formed by the collision of tectonic plates. Everest attracts climbers from around the world seeking to reach its summit, often facing extreme weather, thin air, and challenging conditions. Its towering height makes it a symbol of natural wonder and human endurance. Despite its beauty and significance, ascending Everest requires careful planning, acclimatization, and respect for the mountain’s risks.
