Hima means snow

This is another panoramic view of the Himalayas. The sharp shaped mountain on the leftmost of the picture is named Machapuchare: 6,993m, and the mountain that next to Machapuchare is named Annapurna III: 7,555m. The next one is named Annapurna IV: 7,525m, and then Annapurna II: 7,937m, and finally the mountain on the rightmost of the picture is named Lamjung Himal: 6,986m. I took this picture in Pokhara, Nepal. Machapuchare is known as the symbol of Pokhara. By the way, Himalaya is Sanskrit and it means where the snow is in English. Hima means snow.
