你知道么,藏语中"喜马拉雅"是"冰雪之乡"的意思。7000米以上的高峰,山顶终年被积雪覆盖,冰川广布。
The Himalayas are one of the highest mountain ranges in the world. They are located in Asia, extending over 2,400 kilometres through Pakistan, India, China, Nepal and Bhutan.They basically consist of two almost parallel ranges of mountains.

These ranges are separated by a long, broad valley, which contains the Indus and Brahmaputra rivers.The northern range of mountains is called the Trans-Himalayas. It includes K2, the world's second highest mountain,which was first climbed in 1954.The southern range is divided into three groups: the Great, Lesser and Outer Himalayas.

The Great Himalayas, which are permanently covered with snow, are the highest.They include Mount Everest,the world's highest peak at 8,848 metres,which was first climbed in 1953. (16)The Lesser and Outer Himalayas ,which reach maximum heights of about 4,500 and 1,500 metres respectively, lie further south.

喜马拉雅山雪人之谜
在世界上所有神秘的动物中,最让人着迷神往的就是传说中的喜马拉雅山雪人,雪人被称作“夜帝”(Yeti),意思是居住在岩石上的动物。关于雪人的传说可以追溯到公元前326年,它们高1.5米到4.6米不等,头颅尖耸,红发披顶,周身长满灰黄色的毛,步履快捷。有关雪人的传说逐渐被神秘动物学家承认,吸引着无数探险家来到喜马拉雅地区,找寻这个给人类带来无限幻想空间的神秘动物。

这就是传说中的雪人
1848年,中国西藏墨脱县西宫村桑达被雪人抓死,留在他身上的气味臭不可闻。1951年英国珠穆朗玛峰登山队拍下第一张雪人清晰的脚印的照片。这脚印是在坚硬冰面的薄薄一层雪上留下的,长31.3厘米,宽18.8厘米,拇指很大向外张开。

1960年,埃德蒙·希拉里又一次联合著名作家、冒险家黛斯蒙德·道伊格组织了一次探险。他们带上了价值上百万的装备,希拉里甚至在寺庙里接受了喇嘛送给他的雪人的一块带发头皮,同时还带回来了两块身体其他部分的皮毛。
英国《泰晤士报》2002年报道,动物学家罗波·麦克卡尔宣布,英国牛津大学的科学家对在不丹喜马拉雅山区的一棵树上发现的一团毛发进行的脱氧脱糖核酸(DNA)分析,这是一团不属于任何现在已经定种的动物的脱氧脱糖核酸。这次,似乎是确确实实的证据。
2003年8月19日,一个由日本探险家、科学家和登山爱好者组成的“夜帝”搜寻队抵达了喜马拉雅山营地,开始为期一个半月的寻找“夜帝”行动。他们所携的高技术装备或许能替人们揭开流传千百年的“夜帝”之谜。
