The only open cemetery in the world, where bodies have been awaiting burial for years

Kathmandu, June 12, 2022, Sunday

Climbing Mount Everest, the highest peak in the Himalayas at an altitude of 6,000 meters in the world, is the dream of every adventurous mountaineer. Hundreds of adventurers have repeated this feat since Tenzing and Hillary first climbed Mount Everest. Even today, 15 to 20 out of 1000 climbers die during the adventure of climbing Mount Everest.

During the final ascent of Mount Everest, the adventurer falls into the Rain Bow Valley when he slips or falls. The oldest known body so far is that of George Mallory, an adventurer who was killed in a blizzard on Everest on the 17th.

The bodies of people who died during the adventure are seen lying in the Rain Bow Valley. So at first glance it looks like a man sleeping on a bed of ice but this is the only open cemetery in the world where a human corpse has been hanging in the same condition for centuries.

Helicopters could not even fly to a dangerous place called Rainbow

Accompanying belongings such as oxygen bottles, water bottles, tents and jackets are seen scattered like this. So Rain Bow may sound good but this is a horrible place from where it is not even possible to exhume a human corpse.

Attempts have been made to retrieve the bodies of some of the climbers by helicopter, but the helicopters have not been able to fly as far as the Rain Bow. Many adventurers make special mention of the Rain Bow Valley in their adventures.
