The mountains that enchant with their height and size. For those who love heights.
In the list of the highest peaks of the Land included mountains over 7200 meters, which can be considered as independent (and not like the tops of other mountains).
On Earth there are fourteen mountain peaks with height of over eight thousand meters. All these tops are in Central Asia. But most of the higher mountain peaks are in the Himalayas. They are called “roof of the world”. Climbing these mountains is a very dangerous occupation. Until the middle of last century it was thought that mountains above eight thousand meters are inaccessible to humans. We made a rating of twenty, which includes the highest mountains in the world.
