The Himalayas are probably the most magical place on Earth. About 50 million years ago, a colossal clash between India and Asia resulted in the tallest landform on earth, with 14 peaks reaching over 8,000 meters above sea levels as it journeys through Nepal, India and Tibet.

This book helps you discover the towns that inhabit its rugged lands, its legends and colours in an extraordinary way and features information on the culture and spirituality that lies in this beautiful part of the world.

This spectacular journey through the sacred mountain range provides a comprehensive and panoramic view, featuring the many aspects of the area: nature, human and animal life, spirituality, cities and summits.

Reviews
'This attractive work opens with a map showing the world's mountain ranges, with an inset map showing the Himalayas and the range's significant peaks ... Beorlegi's double-page, jewel-toned illustrations show the stunning colors that characterize life in this region, from the brilliant blue sky to fluttering prayer flags' * Booklist *
