What does Everest mean?

In Tibetan, "Everest" means goddess, and "Langma" means third. Because there are four peaks near Mount Qomolangma, and Mount Qomolangma ranks third, it is called Mount Qomolangma.

Mount Everest is the main peak of the Himalayas and the highest mountain in the world. It is located on the border between China and Nepal, in Dingri County, Tibet, China in the north (the west slope is in Zhaxizong Township, Dingri County, and the east slope is in Qudang Township, Dingri County, with the base camp of Mount Everest), the south is in Nepal, and the peak is in China, making it the highest mountain in the world. It is also the Mount Everest Nature Reserve and Nepal National Park.

Extended data:

1 climate

As a climate boundary affecting the atmosphere and water circulation system, Mount Everest has a decisive influence on the meteorological conditions in the Indian subcontinent in the south and the Central Asian highlands in the north.

Because of its geographical location and amazing height, the Great Himalayas prevented the cold air from the north from flowing into India in winter, and at the same time forced the southwest monsoon to give up most of the water before moving northward across the mountains, resulting in huge precipitation on the Indian side and dryness in Tibet.

2. Protected areas

With Mount Qomolangma as the center, China has established Mount Qomolangma Nature Reserve across four counties, and Nepal has established a national park. Its northern part is in Dingri County, Tibet, China (the western slope is in Zhaxizong Township, Dingri County and the eastern slope is in Qudang Township, Dingri County), and it has its own mountaineering route and Everest base camp.

There are various peaks (Mount Everest, Mount Luozi, Zhang Zifeng, Mount Zhuooyou, etc.). ), Everest Base Camp, Wujiaogou in China Nature Reserve (Chentanggou, Gamagou, Rongzhigou, Zhangmugou and Jilonggou) and related temples.
