Snow-capped mountains are a gift from nature to human beings. For thousands of years, many mountaineering enthusiasts have wanted to climb the snow-capped mountains and overlook the beautiful scenery.

The main reason for the formation of snow-capped mountains is the high altitude. There is a law on the surface of the earth. As altitude increases, the air becomes thinner, more violent, and cooler. Due to the terrain, the water vapor is blocked by the terrain and becomes precipitation. If the temperature is low, it may turn into snow. When snow falls on the mountains, the temperature is extremely low all year round, so the snow does not melt. With the accumulation of years, the snow is pressed into ice and becomes alpine glaciers, and the snow-capped mountains we see appear.

There are many famous snow-capped mountains in the world, such as Kilimanjaro. Mount Kilimanjaro is the highest mountain in Africa and a volcanic hill. The main body of the mountain extends for nearly 80 kilometers in an east-west direction and is mainly composed of three extinct volcanoes, Uhuru, Mawensi and Shila. Kilimanjaro is known as the "Roof of Africa", and many geographers call it the "King of Africa". The main body of the mountain slopes to the plain below with a typical volcanic curve. The height of the plain is about 900 meters above sea level. Surrounded by forests, the mountain is home to numerous mammals, some of which are endangered species.

In addition, there are the famous Alps. The Alps are arc-shaped, with a length of 1,200 kilometers, a width of 130-260 kilometers, an average altitude of about 3,000 meters, and a total area of ​​about 220,000 square kilometers. The Alps are located between temperate and subtropical latitudes, forming the dividing line between the temperate continental humid climate in Central Europe and the subtropical dry summer climate in southern Europe. The Alps is the largest mountain range in Europe, and it is also a huge watershed. Many major rivers in Europe, such as the Danube, the Rhine, the Po, and the Rhone, originate here.

The peaks of the snow-capped mountains stand taller than the other in the night sky. The snow-capped mountains stand in the deep black starry sky, like giants of silver, overlooking the movement of the village. If you have the opportunity, be sure to see the beauty of the snow-capped mountains for yourself!
