TOP 10 HIGHEST MOUNTAINS


1.MOUNT EVEREST

 Mount Everestalso known in Nepal as Sagarmāthā and in Tibet as Chomolungma, is Earth's highest mountain. It is located in the Mahalangur section of the Himalayas. Its peak is 8,848 metres (29,029 ft) above sea level.[1] It is not the furthest summit from the center of the Earth. That honour goes to Mount Chimborazo, in the Andes.[8] The international border between China andNepal runs across Everest's precise summit point. Its massif includes neighboring peaks Lhotse, 8,516 m (27,940 ft); Nuptse, 7,855 m (25,771 ft) and Changtse, 7,580 m (24,870 ft)./
