The Himalayas or Himalaya (/ˌhɪməˈleɪ.ə/ or /hɪˈmɑːləjə/; Sanskrit: हिमालय, from Sanskrit hima (snow) + ālaya (dwelling), literally meaning "abode of snow") is a mountain range in the Indian subcontinent which separates the Indo-Gangetic Plain from the Tibetan Plateau. This range is home to nine of the ten highest peaks on Earth, including the highest above sea level, Mount Everest. The Himalayas have profoundly shaped the cultures of South Asia. Many Himalayan peaks are sacred in both Buddhism and Hinduism.
The Himalayas are bordered on the north by the Tibetan Plateau, on the south by the Indo-Gangetic Plain, on the northwest by the Karakoram and Hindu Kush ranges, and on the east by the Indian states of Sikkim, the Darjeeling district of West Bengal, Assam, Arunachal Pradesh and Manipur. The Hindu Kush, Karakoram and Himalayas form together the "Hindu Kush Himalayan Region" (HKH). The western anchor of the Himalayas—Nanga Parbat—lies just south of the northernmost bend of the Indus River, while the eastern anchor—Namcha Barwa—is situated just west of the great bend of the Yarlung Tsangpo River. The Himalayas span five countries: India, Nepal, Bhutan, China (Tibet), and Pakistan, with the first three countries having sovereignty over most of the range.
The aerial cinema experts at Teton Gravity Research release the first ultra HD footage of the Himalayas shot from above 20,000 ft. with the GSS C520 system, the most advanced gyro-stabilized camera system in the world. Filmed from a helicopter with a crew flying from Kathmandu at 4,600 ft. up to 24,000 ft. on supplemental oxygen, these are some of the most stable, crisp, clear aerial shots of these mountains ever released, which include Mt. Everest, Ama Dablam, and Lhotse. Sound design and mix by Jeff Cormack at Play+Record

Top Secret about Himalaya You didn't know - Full Documentary
UNSEEN DISCOVERY - The Mystical Forbidden Mountain of the Himalayas However, even as human progress and exploration inexorably scratches and pounds at the fringes of our world and understanding, there are still some places in the world that have remained mostly untouched and undefeated by man. One such place lies high in the cold remoteness of the Himalayan mountains. In this place of desolate, bitter cold, unforgiving biting winds, and jagged peaks looms a virtually unexplored mountain steeped in myth and magic known as Gangkhar Puensum, located in Bhutan near the border with China.

Documentary about the Golden Kingdom in the Himalayas in Nepal. Surrounded by the highest mountains in the world is the fascinating world of Nepal, the Golden Kingdom of the Himalayas. Compared to the hubbub of the Nepal capital of Kathmandu, the lakes of the Pokhara Valley located two hundred kilometres to the west are tranquil and relaxing. The freshwater lakes, the Pokhari, also gave the region its name. The vast forest areas of Chitwan in the south of the country on the border with India provide a surprisingly diverse variety of flora and fauna and make its nickname of, The Heart of the Jungle, appropriate. Modern life is far more obvious in Kathmandu Valley than in the south of the country. But the region’s rich historical heritage with its magnificent temples and palatial buildings...

Wild Frontiers' Jonny Bealby presents the highlights of the Kashmir and Himalayas region of India in this guide to northern India. Comprising a region north of the Ganges flood plains, to the east of Nepal, over the foothills and high mountain passes all the way to the former Buddhist kingdom of Ladakh and the fabled earthly paradise Kashmir, the Himalayas represents the least populated and arguably most beautiful region of all India. So, what are the main highlights? Well, heading out of Delhi the first place you'll probably come to is Shilma, former summer capital to the British Raj echoing the history of that era, before moving on to Dharamsala, the home of the Dalai Lama and the Tibetans in Exile. Close to here there are some wonderful walking trips to do staying with local villages...
In Part Five (my last) of my India travel video guide, I trek into the Himalayas along the famed Singalila Ridge, a picturesque trail that winds its way between Nepal and India, and through multiple small Himalayan villages. The highlight is the morning sunrise over the third highest mountain in the world, Mount Kanchenjunga, as well the views of Mount Everest in the far distance. * And if you like the video, please check out my travel site, http://www.TheExpeditioner.com.

Travel video about destination Darjeeling Himalayan Toy Train in Siliguri. The finest way to travel from Siliguri to Darjeeling is by way of the Darjeeling Himalaya Toy Train.The surroundings of Siliguri are well worth a visit and just a few kilometres away is Kali Mandir, a Hindu temple dedicated to the goddess, Kali and also Coronation Bridge an old but impressive structure that was designed and built by the British in 1930. The small train begins to move away slowly and travels through Siliguri, the buildings of which were constructed after the railroad. There is little traffic as only one train travels into the mountains each morning with another returning in the evening. British engineering made this railroad possible, an eighty eight kilometre railroad connection to the mountain worl...
Travel video about destination Himalayas in Tibet. Surrounded by the highest mountains in the world and an adventurer’s dream, the fascinating kingdoms of the Himalayas. Secluded and relatively untouched, and a hidden treasure of mankind, Sikkim, for centuries a segregated and independent Buddhist kingdom situated on the edge of the Himalayas, possesses more than two hundred monasteries. Just two kilometres from Pelling an impressive monastery is perched at the end of a ridge high above the Rangit River, Pemayangtse Gompa. It was founded in the seventeenth century by Lhatsun Chenpo and belongs to the Nyingmapa Order. A funeral in the Mangru Monastery: with music and prayers and the participation of the entire community. The few monks of the tiny monastery pray for the deceased and the v...

In part four of my video travel guide series to India, I travel to Darjeeling, the famed hill station known for its views and famous tea plantations. The city itself is nestled in the Himalaya mountains between Nepal and Northeast India, and is a popular place for people to stay before heading into the mountains for a trek. In this video I visit Observatory Hill, home to the temple where it is thought Darjeeling got its name. Today there are several shrines there, thousands of prayer flags decorating the trees, and even a temple cave. I then head to Happy Valley Tea Estate, one of the only tea plantations actually located in town, where I explore the grounds and sit down for afternoon tea with a local picker. Despite what I always assumed to be an acute sense of smell, I had difficulty p...

Coming from Kolkata, it's hard to believe that Darjeeling is actually in the same state, it's such a vastly different place. In order to get to Darjeeling, India, it's easiest to take the train to the nearest station which is located at New Jalpaiguri (known just as NJP by the train code). There's little to do in NJP, but from right outside the train station you can then board to a shared jeep and for 200 Rupees, you can take the jeep straight to Darjeeling. The jeep normally takes about 4 hours to reach the town and they wil...

In April, 2013, I traveled to India, video camera in hand, filming the sights, eating the food, meeting the people, and experiencing what turned out to be one of my favorite countries to visit from all of my travels. Throughout August, 2013, I will begin releasing the videos from my five-part travel series, which will include videos from Calcutta, Bodhgaya, Varanasi, Darjeeling, and hiking the Himalayas along the Nepal/India border.

License Video: dissolve.com/products?media_type=video&producer;=Pete+R&sort;_by_date=true Peru is hands down my most favorite country in South America. There's so much to do here other than Machu Picchu. First I started off going to the other old cities in the North in Trujillo, spend a few days relaxing in Huachaco, and then a full blown hiking and climbing mountains in Huaraz for 2 weeks. Huaraz is by far the best place to do alpine trekking and mountaineering second to only the Himalayas. The alpines here are stunning and not too difficult to climb. In Huaraz, I went to Laguna 69, summited Mateo, trekked Santa Cruz independently and went way up to 5000m to see a glacier. I could spend like a month just in Huaraz. It's like a little Kathmandu here but with much less tourists! After Hua...
Timelapse Videos Photographed by Anurag Jetly, Timelapse slider manufactured by Nakul Sood and Embrace Video www.embracevideo.com Perhaps it was a fated coincidence - I was in Amritsar, on a cycle rickshaw, just returning from the Golden Temple in the morning when Anurag called me to find out about my products, he asked me about the regular sliders and if I had thought about making a timelapse slider. The coincidence was that I had mechanized a version of the slider and was in Amritsar to discuss motorizing it with another friend, Rishiraj from Harisons, (who make equipment for still photography). He told me that he was planning a trip to the mountains to shoot panoramas and would like to carry the slider if it was ready in time. About the third time we spoke about it, without having me...
Local Langtang expert and Kathmandu student Sunil Tamang started Lets Go To Himalaya earlier this year. The company offers a bespoke Himalayan guide experience with Sunil himself. At just 20 years old Sunil walked the length of the Himalayas alone and unassisted. Now he is saving money for his next adventure and also paying for himself to study at Kathmandu University. We had the pleasure to be guided by him all the way to the peak of Langtang on a 7 day trek. He's a great guide, a true Himalayan local and has some great stories to tell. As a gift to Sunil we created this short film to help promote his bespoke and breathtaking tours in the Himalayas.

WATCH IN HD! Spent 3 weeks in Nepal and one week was spent on trekking. I hiked to Annapurna Base Camp (ABC) and along the way I met some amazing people. ABC is around 4130m high, but we wanted to go where other people don't really go to, so we kept climbing and went to around 5000m high and slid down the mountain. This was an awesome experience and I am definitely going to try to conquer Everest Base Camp the next time I go to Nepal. We didn't need a guide or a porter for this trek. Just us 3 guys and our backpacks. If you got any questions or any feedback, please feel free to give me a comment :) Hope you Enjoy it!
The Dhammapada Translated by Thomas Byrom 1. Choices We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts we make the world. Speak or act with an impure mind And trouble will follow you As the wheel follows the ox that draws the cart. We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts.

She said she had no money
But he was in doubt
He told her, "I used to be in too"
But now he was out
"Spare some small change lady
And I'll be on my way"
She looked into his eyes
And deep in his soul
I know she was wondering
If he was in control
She muttered to herself, "Those beggars,
Where do they all come from?"
He said, "I'm not a homeless man
I'm a gypsy by trade
And I'm travelling this land
I'm not a homeless man"
He moved through the streets
With his headband low
Never thinking he would never see
That woman again, you know
Just sleeping in the doorways
And alleys like he always had
The years rolled by
And later on
He spotted an old woman
All tattered and worn
Hard times had got her
Her clothes were ragged and old
She said, "I'm not a homeless woman
I'm a gypsy by trade
And I'm travelling this land
I'm not a homeless woman"
Sometime in the daytime
Sometimes at night
You will see a couple walking
They'll come into sight
Pushing their carts
And holding hands
If you ask to help
They'll just run away
Like little children, out to play
And if you ask, "Who are you"
They'll always say
"I'm not a homeless man
I'm a gypsy by trade
And I'm travelling this land
She's not a homeless woman
