Highest Peak on EarthMount Everest
Sagarmatha · Chomolungma
Standing at the highest point on Earth, Everest has drawn climbers, dreamers, and pilgrims for over a century. To the Sherpa people of Solukhumbu, she is Chomolungma — Mother Goddess of the World — a sacred presence long before she became the ultimate summit.
Pasang Lhamu Sherpa
First Nepali woman to summit Everest · 1993
She reached the summit after several earlier attempts but did not survive the descent. Khumbu Pasang Lhamu Municipality carries her name today, a lasting tribute to a daughter of these mountains who reached the top of the world.
