Himalayas

L'Himalaya ou l'Himalaya (/ˌhɪməleɪ.ə/ ou / hɪmɑːləjə /; Sanskrit: हिमालय, hima (neige) + ālaya (habitation), littéralement, "demeure de la neige") est une chaîne de montagnes en Asie du Sud séparant les plaines Du sous-continent indien du plateau tibétain. La gamme himalayenne abrite les sommets les plus élevés de la planète, y compris le plus haut, le mont Everest. L'Himalaya comprend plus d'une centaine de montagnes de plus de 7 200 mètres (23 600 pieds) en altitude. En revanche, le pic le plus élevé en dehors de l'Asie - Aconcagua, dans les Andes - est de 6 961 mètres (22 838 pieds) de hauteur. L'Himalaya a profondément façonné les cultures de l'Asie du Sud. Beaucoup de pics de l'Himalaya sont sacrés dans le bouddhisme et l'hindouisme. Outre le Grand Himalaya de ces pics élevés, il existe des plages inférieures parallèles. Les premiers contreforts, atteignant environ mille mètres le long du bord nord des plaines, s'appellent Sivalik Hills ou Sub-Himalayan Range. Plus au nord est une gamme plus élevée atteignant deux à trois mille mètres, connue sous le nom de l'Himalaya inférieure ou Himachal ou Mahabharat.

The Himalayas, or Himalaya, (/ˌhɪməˈleɪ.ə/ or /hɪˈmɑːləjə/; Sanskrit: हिमालय, hima (snow) + ālaya (dwelling), literally, "abode of the snow") is a mountain range in South Asia separating the plains of the Indian subcontinent from the Tibetan Plateau. The Himalayan range is home to the planet's highest peaks, including the highest, Mount Everest. The Himalayas include over a hundred mountains exceeding 7,200 metres (23,600 ft) in elevation. By contrast, the highest peak outside Asia – Aconcagua, in the Andes – is 6,961 metres (22,838 ft) tall. The Himalayas have profoundly shaped the cultures of South Asia. Many Himalayan peaks are sacred in both Buddhism and Hinduism. Besides the Greater Himalayas of these high peaks there are parallel lower ranges. The first foothills, reaching about a thousand meters along the northern edge of the plains, are called the Sivalik Hills or Sub-Himalayan Range. Further north is a higher range reaching two to three thousand meters known as the Lower Himalayan or Himachal or Mahabharat Range.
