The Kingdom of Nepal is blessed with
the most awe inspiring gift of nature anywhere in the world. It
is home to the mighty Himalayas, which mean's "abode of snows" in
Sanskrit. These mountains are the root of thousand's of years of
Nepali culture. They intimidate us with their overwhelming size
and humble us with their apparent immortality.
They are home to 8 of the 10 highest mountains in the world including
the highest of them all Mt. Everest. Mt. Everest (Sagarmatha
as the Nepali's call it) rises to the top of the Himalayas at 29,028
ft. It truly is an honour to sit beneath such a natural spectacle |
