Shishapangma is the 14th highest mountain in the world, standing at 8,027 meters (26,335 feet) above sea level. Located in the Himalayas in Tibet, it is the only peak over 8,000 meters that is entirely within China. The mountain is known for its challenging climbing conditions and is often less frequented than other high peaks. First ascended in 1964, Shishapangma is a popular destination for climbers seeking to summit an 8,000-meter peak. The mountain features a variety of routes, with the southern route being the most commonly used. Its remote location and harsh weather conditions make it a formidable challenge for mountaineers.
