"The mighty Himalayan Ranges are about 2500 km long and 350 km broad. They are the highest mountain in the world with hundreds of high peaks and pinnacles above 20000 feet. The Himalayas are the inseparable part of the Indian heritage. A description of the Himalayas is found in earliest Sanskrit literature. These mighty mountains figure prominently in the Epics, the Ramayana and the Mahabharata. Ancient texts, such as the Ramayana, the Puranas, the Vedas, the Mahabharata, all sing in unison of the glory and wonder of the Himalayas."
