Mount Everest North Face is considerably more impressive than the south (Nepal) side. Towering at 3,000 m from the Rongbuk Glacier, above the Tibetan Plateau, It was from this side of North Face of Everest that the British Expedition in the 1920’s and 30’s came, when Nepal was closed to foreigners.

In the last few years it has received the attention of several commercial expeditions , and with careful planning the same success rates as the south sides are possible.

Reviews
Good experience in Buthan tour
I joined the tour of Buthan for 3 nights. Although the price is high because I am in a solo trip, the quality is good! Buthan is the cleanest country in the world! You don’t need to worry about anything just be happy and excited to join the tour! I just went for 3nights-tour, but I did visit Paro, Thimpu, Punakha ! Although not every sighting sites that would visit, the important sites would not miss! This is my second time join the tour in this travel agency, and I was satiated with it every time ! They will handle everything well.
