Kathmandu, May 25 (UNI) If you imagine the summit of Mount Everest, you might picture a quiet, snowy peak far from civilisation.
But a striking photo, taken by mountaineer Nirmal Purja, shows how the reality can be a lot more crowded. Mr Purja's photo has attracted attention around the world - amid the tragic news that seven climbers died on Everest in the past week.
A BBC News report by Helier Cheung says the picture gives a glimpse into the tough conditions facing climbers at the highest peak in the world.
