Mount Everest Mount Everest, the highest mountain on the Earth with 8,848 metres above the sea level, is part of the Himalaya range, and is located on the border between Nepal, and Tibet, China. It is called “Sagarmatha” in Nepal which means “goddess of the sky”, and the name in Tibet is “Chomolungma” which means “mother goddess of the universe”. In 1865 upon the recommendation of an English adventurer, the English name “Everest” became official. Mount Everest attracts climbers of all levels, from experienced to new climbers which are willing to pay substantial sums to professional mountain guides to complete a successful climb. The mountain still has many inherent dangers, such as altitude sickness, weather and wind. In spite of that information, by the end of the 2007 climbing season, there had been 3,679 ascents to the summit by 2,436 individuals, which means climbers are a significant source of the Nepal tourism. The government requires climbers to obtain an expensive permit, costing up to $25,000 per person. Mount Everest has claimed 210 lives, including eight who perished during a 1996 storm high on the mountain. (Source: Internet)
