What is the tallest mountain in the world?
The tallest mountain in the world is Mount Everest. It is a majestic peak located in the Himalaya mountain range, straddling the border between Nepal and Tibet (an autonomous region of China). The official height of Mount Everest is 8,848.86 meters (approximately 29,032 feet) above sea level12. Known by its Tibetan name “Chomolungma” and its Nepalese name “Sagarmatha,” this iconic mountain stands as the pinnacle of Earth’s natural wonders.
Fun fact: If we were to stack bananas end to end, it would take approximately 46,449 bananas to match the height of Mount Everest!
