Mount Shishapangma

Shishapangma is the 14th-highest mountain in the world, standing at 8,027 meters (26,335 ft) above sea level, located entirely within Tibet. The mountain's name is derived from the local Tibetan language, with "shisha" meaning "meat of an animal that died of natural causes" and "sbangma" meaning "malt dregs left over from brewing beer", or it can be translated to "a grassy plain" or "meadow" above a "comb" or a "range". The mountain has a subsidiary peak, Central Peak, at 8,008 meters (26,273 ft), and is considered one of the easiest eight-thousanders to climb, with the most common ascent via the North Route. It was first climbed in 1964 by a Chinese expedition led by Xǔ Jìng.learn more on wikipedia
