Jomo lhari

Jomolhari  sometimes known as "the bride of Kangchenjunga”, is a mountain in the Himalayas, straddling the border between Yadong County of Tibet and the Paro district of Bhutan. The north face rises over 2,700 metres (8,900 ft) above the barren plains. The mountain is the source of the Paro Chu (Paro river) which flows from the south side and the Amo Chu which flows from the north side.
There is no evidence that the mountain, whose official elevation of 7,314 m is suspiciously close to a round 24,000 feet, has ever been accurately measured. Its true elevation may be nearer to 7,000 metres.
