The great Himalayas are often described as the 'rooftop of the world' and today the mountain ranges lies across 5 different countries, namely Nepal, India, Pakistan, China and Bhutan and some of the world's great rivers such as the Indus and Ganges get their origins from these mountains.
Some of the highest mountains in the world are located here including Mount Everest (Nepal) and the K2 (Pakistan), the highest and second highest mountains respectively.
They are known for unique snow capped mountain ranges and flora and fauna which are only found in these areas such as the beautiful snow leopard. Apart from that, mighty rivers, deep valleys and a multiple languages and cultures are based within the Himalayas. Due to tall mountains and general ruggedness of the area, people living in close proximity follow different cultures, speak different languages and have different belief systems. They are also popular as tourism spots, known for clear air and beautiful surroundings.

1) The Himalayas are geologically young fold mountains covering the northern border of India.
2) The Himalayan range is the highest and the most rugged mountain range in the world.
3) The Himalayas are formed from three parallel ranges of mountains:
The Himadri,
The Himachal and
The Shiwaliks.
4) The Himadri also called the Great or Inner Himalayas, is the northern most range of the Himalayas. This range is in a single, unbroken line and has the highest peaks like Mount Everest and Mount Godwin Austin.
5)Several glaciers, such as the Gangotri and the Siachen, originate from this range. The Zoji La pass is situated in the Great Himalayan range and serves as the only link between Ladakh and Kashmir.
