The Himalayas are a huge international mountain system, located in China and neighboring countries such as Pakistan, India, Nepal, Sikkim, and Bhutan. Among them, the Great Himalayas are mostly located at the junction of China and its southern neighbors. Most of the areas are bounded by the main ridge. The southern slope of the Himalayas can be reached in the above-mentioned deep valleys across the mountain system and in the eastern section.
