Nepal sits atop the most dangerous mountain range in the world, the world-famous Himalayas. Here, there are plains canyons, alpine meadows, ravines, and thousands of walls. Its southeast is the rich Kathmandu Valley, Its northwest is the backbone of the world, with the highest peaks in the world and numerous snow-capped mountains. Whether it is topography, flowers, and trees, or even the alpine people living at the foot of the snow-capped mountains, every place here shows the original and pure life tension.

Nepal has a few over 8,000-meter peaks. Whether you are a professional climber or a first-time 8,000-meter mountain climber, you can always find a suitable one to climb. The following is a brief introduction to the climbing history of these peaks in Nepal.

The first official expedition to climb Mount Everest was formed in 1921. In the early climbing attempts, Nepal was not open to the public, so the north slope was the only option for climbing. On the first attempt, the team reached 7,000 meters, and in 1922, the British team continued to move forward, reaching an unprecedented 8,000 meters. Of course, the most famous early expedition was the 1924 attempt by George Mallory and Andrew Owen. On June 8, 1924, teammates observed that George Mallory and Owen could still be seen 800 meters from the summit, but then bad weather engulfed the two climbers. It wasn't until 75 years later, in 1999, that Mallory's body was found at 8,155 meters, but Owen's remains were still missing. Whether the two reached the top has still been a mystery. On May 29, 1953, Sherpa Tenzing Norgay and New Zealander Edmund Hillary completed the first recorded summit of Mount Everest from the southeastern ridge route on the southern slope.

Kanchenjunga Mountain is located in eastern Nepal, with an altitude of 8,586 meters and is the third highest peak in the world. For a long time, Kanchenjunga was considered the highest peak in the world until the British Grand Triangulation found Mount Everest as the highest peak in 1849. On May 25, 1955, a British mountaineering team including Joe Brown and George Bender reached the summit of Kanchenjunga for the first time. This mountain is regarded as a "sacred mountain" by the Sikkim people. Out of respect for their beliefs, climbers usually stop a few steps at the highest point in order to keep the "Sacred Mountain" intact.

Lhotse, 8516 meters above sea level, is the fourth highest peak in the world. The first ascent was made on May 18, 1956 by Ernst Reiss and Fritz Ruchsinger of Switzerland. An earlier attempt was launched in 1955 by an international Himalayan expedition consisting of two Austrians, two Swiss and three Americans, which also employed 200 porters and a large number of Shire bar. Twelve years later, on May 12, 1970, two Austrians (Sep Mayer and Rolf Walter) made their first ascent of Lhotse Shire. On May 23, 2001, Eugenie Vinograsky, Sergey Timofeev, Alexei Polotov and Peter Kuznetsov reached the intermediate summit of Lhotse. The east side of Lhotse is in China, but so far, no one has successfully climbed from the Chinese side.
