Mount Everest, Himalayas, Nepal and Tibet
(29,028ft/8,848m)
You simply cannot talk about the world's mountains and
not mention Mount Everest. The mother of all mountains, it rises so high, you'd
need almost 11 Burj Khalifas (the world's tallest building) to match its
height. Located right on the border of Nepal and Tibet, an autonomous region
within China, the first recorded ascent up this incredible mountain was
completed by Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay as recently as 1953.
