It’s lower peak, mount Lhotse sahar 8516 m, sometimes considered a separate 8000 m, peak, mount Lhotse, which means “South Peak” is a part of the Mt. Everest massif, the south of Mt Everest. The primary route on Mt. Lhotse is via Everest’s South Col. But by 1955, despite the increasing activity on Mt .Everest,MT. Lhotse was still the highest virgin peak in the world. The first attempt on Mt. Lhotse was made by an international team in 1955.,

One member of the party was Erwin Schneider; during this expedition, he began to work on the first of the series of high-quality “Schneider maps of the Mt. Everest region”. The same Swiss party that made the second ascent of Everest in 1956 made the first ascent of Mt .Lhotse from a camp just below the South Col. Mt. Lhotse Sahar was first successfully climbed by an Austrian expedition in 1970. Later Japanese, South Koreans, and Germans attempted from various routes on its main peak. Some Polish and Italians also climbed the summit before done by German expeditions in 1977.

My country Nepal

Nepal is a very beautiful country. It is also a landlocked country. China lies in the east side of the country. Likewise, India in west, north and south. It lies in the northern hemisphere. Our country has three geographical zones. They are Himalayan, Mountainous and Terai. Here, we have monsoon climate. It is very cold and dry during winter. And hot, stormy and rainy in summer. Furthermore, it is rich in natural beauty and resources. Here are long and wide rivers. Such as Koshi, Gandaki, Karnali, etc. Moreover, here are large lakes also. Like Rupa, Begnas, Rara, etc. Likewise, we have green valleys, lovely water falls, etc. Similarly, it is rich in religious and historical heritages. Lumbini, Gorkha, Janakpur, Kathmandu are the famous examples.

Nepal is highly diverse country. And has rich geography, culture, and religions. The mountainous north has many mountains. It includes eight of the world’s ten highest mountains. This also includes the highest  mountain Sagarmatha. It is known as Mount Everest in English. The fertile and humid south is heavily urbanized. It contains over 240 peaks. They are more than 20,000 ft. (6,096 m) above sea level.

People of many castes and religions live here. About hundred languages are spoken  here. Our popular foods are dal bhat, dhindo, gundurk etc. Similarly, Dashain, Tihar, Lhosar, Id etc. They are the most popular festivals. We celebrate these festivals very happily. Most  of the people are farmers. They grow rice, corn, wheat, millet, potato etc. Some people in the cities are businessmen also.  Likewise, some have industries. Therefore, people living here are very laborious.

Nepal is rich in natural resources. So, tourists love to visit our country. They can see endangered birds and animals here. Also, they can enjoy natural beauty. So, tourism is our potential industry.

Nepal is small but rich in natural resources. Although it is poor by economic condition. Nepal is developing country. To develop soon,  we have to aware all the citizen. We must provide education equally. To both men and women. Government should bring advance program. This may help citizen in development process. And, provide different facilities to citizen. And it’ll give benefit to citizen. Finally, it’ll help the  government also.

Nepal is a beautiful country. So, we have to publish it all over the world. And it’ll help to attract tourist. In this way, we can control our economic condition. Therefore, we can achieve success by developing our strengths. face book
