The Western Himalayas refers to the western half of the Himalayas, in northwestern India and northern Pakistan. Four of the five tributaries of the Indus River in Punjab (Beas, Chenab, Jhelum, and Ravi) rise in the Western Himalayas; while the fifth, the Sutlej cuts through the range after rising in Tibet.
Included within the Western Himalayas are the Zanskar Range, the Pir Panjal Range, and the Dhauladhar Range, and western parts of the Sivalik Range and the Great Himalayas. The highest point is Nanga Parbat (26,660 feet or 8,126 metres), at the northwestern end of the region.
Wandering in the western part of great #Himalayas for the last 12 years accompanying my cameras, I have learnt a lot on geography of northern Pakistan and western Himalayas. During my trips, I have recorded around 3000 GBs of videos and thought to make a video on geographical significance of this highest ground on earth. I have compiled all my tours in 23 min video and discussed shorter versions of rivers, lakes, national parks and corridors in Himalayas. With over 600 video clips and 240 audio previews, I've created a video that is more related to geographical knowledge instead of tourism. This was a great idea indeed. Will also create longer versions of these cleanest and beautiful places of earth that are famous for tourism, natural resources and natural beauty.
