Mount Everest (सगरमाथा, Sagarmāthā) is the highest mountain in the world, with a summit elevation of 8,848 meters (29,029 feet) above sea level. It is located in the Himalayas, on the border between Nepal and China. The mountain is part of the Himalayan range, which also includes other high peaks such as K2 and Lhotse.
Everest is considered one of the most challenging mountains to climb, due to its high altitude, extreme weather conditions, and technical climbing routes. It has been climbed by many skilled mountaineers over the years, but it has also claimed the lives of many climbers who have attempted to reach the summit. The first successful ascent of Everest was made by Sir Edmund Hillary of New Zealand and Tenzing Norgay, a Sherpa of Nepal, in 1953. Since then, many climbers from around the world have attempted to conquer the mountain, and it has become a popular destination for mountaineering expeditions.
