Rome was the capital of a powerful empire that lasted centuries, so
the name doesn't really come as a surprise. The origin of the nickname though,
is credited to poet Tibullus, who in the 1st century BCE referred to the city
as Urbs
Aeterna, which means "Eternal City" in Latin.
Motown.

It's no secret that Mount Everest is the Himalayas' most famous peak, however, this mountain range is home to many other spectacular mountains. One such mountain is Ama Dablam. Sometimes referred to as the Matterhorn of the Himalayas, the name loosely translates as mother's necklace.
