Himalayan range

The Himalayan range is a vast mountain system in Asia, stretching about 2,400 kilometers across countries like Nepal, India, Bhutan, and China. It is home to some of the world’s highest peaks, including Mount Everest, which reaches 8,848 meters (29,029 feet). Formed by the collision of the Indian and Eurasian tectonic plates, the Himalayas continue to rise gradually. This mountain range influences climate and weather patterns in the region and supports diverse ecosystems and cultures. It is a vital source of rivers, including the Ganges and Yangtze, and holds significant spiritual and cultural importance for local communities.
