Nepal is known as the land of the Himalayas. These are the loftiest mountains in the world. The Himalayas extend all over Northern Nepal and occupy nearly forty percent of the total area of our country. They consist of several parallel ranges, one higher than the other. The higher Himalayas are perpetually covered with snow, which is why they are called the Himalayas.In Sanskrit, 'Himalaya' means the abode of snow. The higher Himalayas contain most of the highest peaks in the world. Some of the highest peaks are Mt. Everest, Kanchenjunga, Lhotse and Cho Oyu. These peaks attract climbers every year. The high Himalayas contain several big glaciers and lakes. They are devoid of vegetation and human settlement.
The lower Himalayas are forested. The forest contains pine trees and rhododendrons. The rhododendrons is the national flower of our country. On the lower parts of these mountains we find valleys and lakes. The lower Himalayas are inhabited but the density of the population is low. Life is difficult in the mountains. People rear goats and sheep. Some cultivation is done on the hill-slopes and in the valleys. The Himalayas are a great hindrance to the development of our country.They cover a large part of our country. As they are unfit for the cultivation, a big area of our country is huge waste. Transport is difficult across the mountains and people can not travel easily from one part of the country to another. Some parts of the Himalayas are inaccessible and inhospitable. Though the Himalayas are an obstacles to the development of our country, we derive many benefits from them. They stand as sentinels on our northern border. They form an insurmountable wall and protect us from enemies.Thus, the Himalayas are useful for us in many ways.
