Mount Qomolangma, meaning "Third Goddess" in Tibetan, is located in Tingri County of Shigatse Prefecture on the China-Nepal border. With an elevation of 8,848.86m, it stands as the highest peak of the Himalayas.Highest peak in the worldThe Mount Qomolangma attraction area is surrounded by 4 peaks over 8,000m and more than 40 peaks over 7,000m. Its pyramid-shaped mountain body appears majestic and imposing.Snow-capped peaks year-roundThe mountain is flanked by three major ridges—the northeast ridge, southeast ridge, and west ridge—with three steep cliffs (north face, east face, and southwest face) nestled between them. Among these ridges and cliffs lie over 500 large glaciers, adorned with spectacular and rare ice towers, ice cliffs towering dozens of meters high, and deep crevasses. These breathtaking views come together to form the majestic "Third Pole of the Earth." The climate here is complex and unpredictable, often changing dramatically even within a single day. Generally, the rainy season lasts from early June to September, when the likelihood of encountering heavy snowstorms is high. The best viewing periods are between April–May and September–October.This is also a great time for mountain climbing.If you're not a trained mountaineer, visiting the attraction mainly offers distant views of the majestic Third Goddess Peak. You can spend a night at base camp to experience the 5,200m altitude, or if you're physically fit, hike a short distance to admire the spectacular Rongbuk Glacier up close.
