| Best Mountain Walk In The World!! |
Everybody has heard of Mount Everest and few dared to even climb it because it is the highest mount. It has a height of 8,848 metres. In the 19th century , the Great Trigonometric Survey of India were the first that tried to measure the height of the Mount Everest. The Royal Geographical Society was the one that gice this name to the peak, after one of its predecesor ruler.
If you want to climb the mount Everest there are several trails available, some of them are easy or some are more difficult..Many climbers come every year and try to suceed. But this is not easy, because many of them get ill because of the altitude. The cold weather makes many victims, and the wind is not easy to bear. K2 i one of the most difficult trail and normal climbers need to be accompanoed by a professional mountain guide. This professional mountain guide costs prety much. The people from Nepal many most of their many from tourism, for example any climber need to obtain a permit that may cost even $20 000.
Most of the untrained climbers have problems in the “death zone”. This are is situated where the mountain has more then 8000 metres hight. If they are not careful how they are equiped, the climbers may suffer frostbite on the extremites of teir body, because the temperatures can get very low. On this part of the trails snow and ice is available, so the tourists may slip and fall. The winds also make many problems to the climbers. Because of the atmospheric pressure the oxygen level in the air is low and cause also problems to the tourists that managed to get thru this zone. This is why it is better that climbers use supplementary oxygen, with some special masks and bottled oxygen. In 1922 was the first time that some climbers succeeded to climg the Mount Everest with the help of bottled oxygen.
The flora and fauna is poor on this mount, because of its high altitude. Some species of birds have benn seen here, as for example the Bar-headed Goose and Chough.
It is interesting to know that the tibetansdon’t name this peak Mount Everest (named by the British after George Everest), but instead they have their own name, they call it Chomolangma. They consider this mount as beeing holy and maybe this is why for so many years they didn’t want any strangers to climb it. It is our pride to be in a country where 8 out of 10 peaks are with us. No, doubt the natural scene of northern part of Nepal is being the natural boarder with people republic of china.

| Top Of The World (8,848m) |
Many Westerners think this small Asian country is home only to the eternal Himalayas including Mt. Everest, the highest mountain in the world. Little is known about its other attractions.
Bungee jumping on the Nepal-Tibet border is one of them.On a nippy November morning, I was among a small group of Nepali journalists who embarked on a three-hour bus journey from Kathmandu to the Bhotekoshi River, near the Nepal-Tibet border.
This is the location of the popular Last Resort and Ultimate Bungy, which at 500 feet, provides one of the highest bungee jumps in the world.

Paragliding above Pokharapublic transportPokhara has several bus routes, mainly running the length of the city from north to south as well as east to west. Pokhara mini buses with navy blue colour painted at the bottom and Lekhnath mini buses with green colour painted at the bottom are giving services daily. Few years ago, smaller bus which are well known as 'micro-bus' started giving service at a cheaper price. Apart from buses, public taxis also provide reliable transportation service but they are considered a bit expensive. Many taxi drivers are reluctant to run on the meter though it is the law. |
