but also in spirituality Gauri Shankar. Lord
Shankar [Shiva] and his consort Gauri are
said to protect this mountain, at the proud
height of 7134m.and summit had a history of
unsuccessful attempts till 1979. Gauri -Shankar

stretches up to 7023m.Chugimago at 6297mis

mountain that at 6511m. gleams with the
rising sun. Cho-Oyu is the sixth highest
mountain in the world. Reaching a height of
