Extreme cold, thin air, strong winds-these are what define the highest peak on Earth, Mount Qomolangma. The mountain is there, drawing countless dreamers who dare to climb. Among them are groups of Chinese climbers, risking their lives to reach the summit, all for the mission to measure the mountain’s height.
Recently, the exhibition to commemorate the 50th anniversary of China’s first independent measurement of Mount Qomolangma’s height has opened to public in the Geological Museum of China. Now, join us to retrace China’s three landmark expeditions to determine the precise elevation of the world’s highest peak!
