Several ways to eat pulses are:</strong></h2> <div style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border: 0px none; font-family: arial; font-size: 14px; line-height: 28px; outline: none 0px; padding: 0px 0px 20px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"> <strong style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border: 0px none; margin: 0px; outline: none 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">1. Roasting:</strong>Roast the pulses in an iron utensil, that will increase the amount of iron present in pulses. Roasting will also make the protein in the pulses easy to digest by improving the quality of the protein. You can keep roasted chick pea handy and have it like a snack in between two meals to take advantage of the health benefits of pulses.</div> <div style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border: 0px none; font-family: arial; font-size: 14px; line-height: 28px; outline: none 0px; padding: 0px 0px 20px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"> <strong style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border: 0px none; margin: 0px; outline: none 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">2. Fermenting:</strong><br />The grinded pulses are mixed with rice to make Indian snacks like idli, dhoklas, dosa. Fermentation increases the amount of Vitamin B, one of the health benefits of pulses, and it also makes the food easy to digest. People recovering from ailments are given these snacks in India as they are easy to digest.</div> <div style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border: 0px none; font-family: arial; font-size: 14px; line-height: 28px; outline: none 0px; padding: 0px 0px 20px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"> <strong style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border: 0px none; margin: 0px; outline: none 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">3. Sprouting:</strong><br />If you soak the pulses in clean water and germinate them the amount of Vitamin C in pulses is increased. The amount of Vitamin A also increases but on the third day when the shoots change color from yellow to green as the chlorophyll increases. The pulses that are germinated have easy to digest carbohydrates- maltose. Half a cup of sprouts have Vitamin C that is equal to almost six glasses of orange juice. Hence, a bowl full of green gram sprouts is a very healthy snack and it will provide you with a great deal of vitamins and health benefits of pulses as well.</div> <div style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border: 0px none; font-family: arial; font-size: 14px; line-height: 28px; outline: none 0px; padding: 0px 0px 20px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"> <strong style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border: 0px none; margin: 0px; outline: none 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">4. Pulses along with vegetables:</strong>You can have pulses along with vegetables for a healthy meal filled with minerals, vitamins, and other health benefits of pulses. For example you can make spinach curry and add soyabean or chickpea in it for a delicious and healthy meal.</div> </div>

That includes toothaches and minor bruises to colic. One of the major ingredients in Asian cooking, this yellow colored spice gives a special flavor to meals. Rightly called the ‘Queen of Spices’, turmeric not only helps prevent spoilage of food but also helps destroy organisms in raw food. It moreover protects the nutritive value of food items. While adding good taste and zero calories to the diet it is a very promising disease preventive agent.</div> <h2 style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border: 0px none; font-family: Andada, serif; font-size: 19px; margin: 0px; outline: none 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> Turmeric- A Potential Drug Alternative</h2> <div style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border: 0px none; font-family: arial; font-size: 14px; line-height: 28px; outline: none 0px; padding: 0px 0px 20px; vertical-align: baseline;"> With anti inflammatory properties ranging from increasing immunity to being antioxidant, turmeric is seen as a potential drug alternative.

It occurs as self protection in response to foreign invaders like bacteria and virus. Inflammation leads to redness/ rashes or swelling in the affected area along with irritation and pain. However, when body’s immune system triggers an inflammatory response in the absence of foreign substances it leads to excess inflammation in the body. This results in diseases like asthma, arthritis, irritable bowel syndrome, Crohn’s disease, tendonitis and more.</div> <div style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border: 0px none; font-family: arial; font-size: 14px; line-height: 28px; outline: none 0px; padding: 0px 0px 20px; vertical-align: baseline;"> The compound has been shown to influence more than 700 genes.</div> <h2 style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border: 0px none; font-family: Andada, serif; font-size: 19px; margin: 0px; outline: none 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> The anti oxidant properties of turmeric is five to eight times stronger than vitamins C and E.</h2> <div style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border: 0px none; font-family: arial; font-size: 14px; line-height: 28px; outline: none 0px; padding: 0px 0px 20px; vertical-align: baseline;"> In our body, cells continuously grow and die. During different cellular functions, a few of these cells get damaged and turn into free radicals. Free radicals refer to the damaged cells that have lost a molecule and can be very problematic since they start pairing up randomly with other molecules. This affects the DNA of the cell because of which it grows abnormally leading to many chronic diseases. So we must include more antioxidants in our diet to offset the negative impacts.<br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-yMNrDvGoDms-WmVhccMZUGaCk9I5m0V0-0Ws0_WOpMEIx_ygOoN9lLENk_8s2cWBWG4wHC_M46C7bx-kWgrfeJbt8r79AJjgLb2k7GOQRsdJIkhkFpjlbFHpjX3RscISlcyf0ZcPIm-C/s1600/turmeric.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="356" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-yMNrDvGoDms-WmVhccMZUGaCk9I5m0V0-0Ws0_WOpMEIx_ygOoN9lLENk_8s2cWBWG4wHC_M46C7bx-kWgrfeJbt8r79AJjgLb2k7GOQRsdJIkhkFpjlbFHpjX3RscISlcyf0ZcPIm-C/s1600/turmeric.jpg" width="640" /></a></div> <br /></div> <div style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border: 0px none; font-family: arial; font-size: 14px; line-height: 28px; outline: none 0px; padding: 0px 0px 20px; vertical-align: baseline;"> <strong style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border: 0px none; margin: 0px; outline: none 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Turmeric- An Anti-Cancer agent</strong></div> <div style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border: 0px none; font-family: arial; font-size: 14px; line-height: 28px; outline: none 0px; padding: 0px 0px 20px; vertical-align: baseline;"> Interestingly, many studies have now shown that turmeric also has anti-cancer properties. Cancer is one of the leading causes of death.It is thought that Curcumin may help prevent cancer by interfering with aspects of cellular signaling. It has the ability to alter genetic activity and expression. It not only destroys but also promotes healthy cell function. The mutated cancer cells are destroyed because of Curcumin thereby preventing further spread.</div> <div style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border: 0px none; font-family: arial; font-size: 14px; line-height: 28px; outline: none 0px; padding: 0px 0px 20px; vertical-align: baseline;"> An American study performed in 2007 showed that combined treatment of Curcumin with chemotherapy to treat bowel cancer cells was more effective than chemotherapy alone.</div> <div style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border: 0px none; font-family: arial; font-size: 14px; line-height: 28px; outline: none 0px; padding: 0px 0px 20px; vertical-align: baseline;"> Human studies of Curcumin in cancer prevention and treatment is still in its early stage. Of the different cancers, turmeric is said to be most effective against bowel cancer, breast cancer, skin cancer and stomach cancer cells.</div> <div style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border: 0px none; font-family: arial; font-size: 14px; line-height: 28px; outline: none 0px; padding: 0px 0px 20px; vertical-align: baseline;"> And, now of course, we don’t need more reasons not to include more curried dishes in our meals. Adding turmeric to our diet is one of the simplest ways toward optimal health one can make. You can experiment different ways in which you can use a pinch of this spice in your daily diet. Maybe adding a dash of it to scrambled eggs or sprinkling it on roasted cauliflower/potatoes or adding it to your salad dressing. This golden spice is actually worth its weight in gold.</div> </div>

But long before that time humans have been climbing mountains for the challenge it poses. Or “because it’s there” as English mountaineer George Mallory famously replied when he was asked why he wanted to climb Mount Everest. A few months later he disappeared on the way to the summit.</div> <div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23.799999237060547px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> Some of the mountains on this list still provide a great challenge for the professional mountaineer. Others can be visited more easily by foot or cableway. But all of them can be appreciated from a safe distance providing magnificent vistas and spectacular scenery.</div> <div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23.799999237060547px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> <span id="more-890" style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"></span></div> <div class="topitem" id="item_mount_kinabalu" style="border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; height: 50px; line-height: 23.799999237060547px; margin: 35px 0px 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> <span class="topnumber" style="background-color: #a64d79; border: 0px; color: white; font-family: inherit; font-size: 26px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: bold; height: 50px; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 15px 20px; vertical-align: baseline;">11</span><span class="toptitle" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: 22px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px 10px; vertical-align: baseline;">Mount Kinabalu</span></div> <div class="image_640" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23.799999237060547px; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px; position: relative; vertical-align: baseline;"> <img alt="Mount Kinabalu" src="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/184/434687604_bf98751fe7_z.jpg?zz=1" style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; height: auto; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; max-width: 100%; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;" title="Mount Kinabalu" width="100%" /><span class="photo-credit" style="border: 0px; bottom: 0px; color: black; font-family: verdana; font-size: 8pt; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: 1.8; margin: 0px; opacity: 0.6; padding: 4px; position: absolute; right: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; z-index: 3;"><br /></span></div> <div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23.799999237060547px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> With a summit height at 4,095 meters (13,435 ft), Mount Kinabalu is the highest mountain in Borneo. The mountain is known worldwide for its tremendous botanical and biological species biodiversity. Over 600 species of ferns, 326 species of birds, and 100 mammalian species have been identified at Mount Kinabalu and its surrounding. The main peak of the mountain can be climbed easily by a person with a good physical condition, and requires no mountaineering equipment although climbers must be accompanied by guides at all times.</div> <div class="topitem" id="item_amphitheatre_drakensberg" style="border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; height: 50px; line-height: 23.799999237060547px; margin: 35px 0px 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> <span class="topnumber" style="background-color: #a64d79; border: 0px; color: white; font-family: inherit; font-size: 26px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: bold; height: 50px; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 15px 20px; vertical-align: baseline;">10</span><span class="toptitle" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: 22px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px 10px; vertical-align: baseline;">Amphitheatre, Drakensberg</span></div> <div class="image_640" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23.799999237060547px; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px; position: relative; vertical-align: baseline;"> <img alt="Amphitheatre, Drakensberg" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2210/2050851428_a66f571346_z.jpg?zz=1" style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; height: auto; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; max-width: 100%; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;" title="Amphitheatre, Drakensberg" width="100%" /><span class="photo-credit" style="border: 0px; bottom: 0px; color: black; font-family: verdana; font-size: 8pt; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: 1.8; margin: 0px; opacity: 0.6; padding: 4px; position: absolute; right: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; z-index: 3;"><br /></span></div> <div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23.799999237060547px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> The Drakensberg is the highest mountain range in Southern Africa, rising to 3,482 metres (11,420 ft) in height. The name is derived from the dutch and means “dragons mountain”. The Amphitheatre is one of the geographical features of the Northern Drakensberg, and is widely regarded as one of the most impressive cliff faces on earth. The Amphitheatre is over 5 kilometers (3 miles) in length and has precipitous cliffs rising approximately 1200 meters (4000 ft) along its entire length.</div> <div class="topitem" id="item_mount_huang" style="border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; height: 50px; line-height: 23.799999237060547px; margin: 35px 0px 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> <span class="topnumber" style="background-color: #a64d79; border: 0px; color: white; font-family: inherit; font-size: 26px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: bold; height: 50px; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 15px 20px; vertical-align: baseline;">9</span><span class="toptitle" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: 22px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px 10px; vertical-align: baseline;">Mount Huang</span></div> <div class="image_640" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23.799999237060547px; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px; position: relative; vertical-align: baseline;"> <img alt="Mount Huang" src="http://resources.touropia.com/gfx/d/mountains-of-the-world/mount_huang.jpg" style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; height: auto; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; max-width: 100%; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;" title="Mount Huang" width="100%" /><span class="photo-credit" style="border: 0px; bottom: 0px; color: black; font-family: verdana; font-size: 8pt; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: 1.8; margin: 0px; opacity: 0.6; padding: 4px; position: absolute; right: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; z-index: 3;"><br /></span></div> <div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23.799999237060547px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> Mount Huang is a mountain range in eastern China also known as Huangshan (“Yellow Mountain”). The area is well known for its scenery, sunsets, peculiarly-shaped granite peaks and views of the clouds from above. Mount Huang is a frequent subject of traditional Chinese paintings and literature, as well as modern photography. The tallest peak in the Huangshan mountain range is the Lotus Peak at 1,864 meters (6,115 ft). In ancient times almost 60,000 stone steps were carved into the side of the mountain. Today there are also cable cars that tourists can use to ride directly from the base to one of the summits.</div> <div class="topitem" id="item_aoraki_mount_cook" style="border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; height: 50px; line-height: 23.799999237060547px; margin: 35px 0px 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> <span class="topnumber" style="background-color: #a64d79; border: 0px; color: white; font-family: inherit; font-size: 26px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: bold; height: 50px; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 15px 20px; vertical-align: baseline;">8</span><span class="toptitle" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: 22px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px 10px; vertical-align: baseline;">Aoraki Mount Cook</span></div> <div class="image_640" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23.799999237060547px; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px; position: relative; vertical-align: baseline;"> <img alt="Aoraki Mount Cook" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2415/2377113600_195e1713a1_z.jpg?zz=1" style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; height: auto; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; max-width: 100%; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;" title="Aoraki Mount Cook" width="100%" /><span class="photo-credit" style="border: 0px; bottom: 0px; color: black; font-family: verdana; font-size: 8pt; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: 1.8; margin: 0px; opacity: 0.6; padding: 4px; position: absolute; right: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; z-index: 3;"><br /></span></div> <div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23.799999237060547px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> Aoraki Mount Cook is the highest mountain in New Zealand, reaching a height of 3,754 metres (12,316 ft). Aoraki means “Cloud Piercer” in the Ngai Tahu dialect of the Maori language. The mountain lies in a national park of the same name which contains 27 other mountains which peak at over 3000 meters. A popular tourist destination, it is also a favorite destination for mountain climbers. It is is a challenging ascent, with frequent storms and very steep snow and ice climbing to reach the peak. The mountain was first climbed successfully in 1894 by three New Zealanders who reached the summit via the north ridge.</div> <div class="topitem" id="item_monte_fitz_roy" style="border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; height: 50px; line-height: 23.799999237060547px; margin: 35px 0px 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> <span class="topnumber" style="background-color: #a64d79; border: 0px; color: white; font-family: inherit; font-size: 26px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: bold; height: 50px; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 15px 20px; vertical-align: baseline;">7</span><span class="toptitle" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: 22px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px 10px; vertical-align: baseline;">Monte Fitz Roy</span></div> <div class="image_640" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23.799999237060547px; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px; position: relative; vertical-align: baseline;"> <img alt="Monte Fitz Roy" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3176/2953138948_25babdfa68_z.jpg?zz=1" style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; height: auto; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; max-width: 100%; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;" title="Monte Fitz Roy" width="100%" /><span class="photo-credit" style="border: 0px; bottom: 0px; color: black; font-family: verdana; font-size: 8pt; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: 1.8; margin: 0px; opacity: 0.6; padding: 4px; position: absolute; right: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; z-index: 3;"><br /></span></div> <div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23.799999237060547px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> Monte Fitz Roy is a 3,375 meter (11,073 ft) high mountain on the border between Argentina and Chile. Despite its average height the mountain has a reputation of being extremely difficult to climb because the sheer granite faces present long stretches of arduous technical climbing. In addition, the weather in the area is exceptionally severe and treacherous. The mountain also attracts many tourists and photographers thanks to its otherworldly shape. It was first climbed in 1952 by French alpinists Lionel Terray and Guido Magnone.</div> <div class="topitem" id="item_mount_kailash" style="border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; height: 50px; line-height: 23.799999237060547px; margin: 35px 0px 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> <span class="topnumber" style="background-color: #a64d79; border: 0px; color: white; font-family: inherit; font-size: 26px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: bold; height: 50px; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 15px 20px; vertical-align: baseline;">6</span><span class="toptitle" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: 22px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px 10px; vertical-align: baseline;">Mount Kailash</span></div> <div class="image_640" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23.799999237060547px; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px; position: relative; vertical-align: baseline;"> <img alt="Mount Kailash" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2354/2145687953_776750b735_z.jpg?zz=1" style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; height: auto; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; max-width: 100%; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;" title="Mount Kailash" width="100%" /></div> <div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23.799999237060547px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> Located in Tibet, Mount Kailash is considered as a sacred place in five religions: Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, Ayyavazhi and the Bön faith. In Hinduism, it is considered to be the abode of Lord Shiva. Every year, thousands make a pilgrimage to Kailash, following a tradition going back thousands of years. It is believed that moving around Mount Kailash on foot will bring good fortune. Because of these beliefs the mountain is considered off limits to climbers and there have been no recorded attempts to climb the 6,638 meter (21,778 ft) high Mount Kailash. It is the most significant peak in the world that has not seen any known climbing attempts.</div> <div class="topitem" id="item_banff_national_park" style="border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; height: 50px; line-height: 23.799999237060547px; margin: 35px 0px 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> <span class="topnumber" style="background-color: #a64d79; border: 0px; color: white; font-family: inherit; font-size: 26px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: bold; height: 50px; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 15px 20px; vertical-align: baseline;">5</span><span class="toptitle" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: 22px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px 10px; vertical-align: baseline;">Mountains of Banff</span></div> <div class="image_640" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23.799999237060547px; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px; position: relative; vertical-align: baseline;"> <img alt="Banff National Park" src="http://resources.touropia.com/gfx/d/mountains-of-the-world/banff_national_park.jpg" style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; height: auto; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; max-width: 100%; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;" title="Banff National Park" width="100%" /><span class="photo-credit" style="border: 0px; bottom: 0px; color: black; font-family: verdana; font-size: 8pt; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: 1.8; margin: 0px; opacity: 0.6; padding: 4px; position: absolute; right: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; z-index: 3;"><br /></span></div> <div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23.799999237060547px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> Banff National Park is Canada’s oldest national park, established in 1885 in the Rocky Mountains and one North America’s most visited parks. Banff’s mountains exhibit several different shapes that have been influenced by the composition of rock deposits, layers, and their structure. The 3,618 meter (11,870 ft) high Mount Assiniboine has been shaped by glacial erosion that has left a sharp peak. It has been unofficially named the “Matterhorn” of North America. The mountains of the Valley of the Ten Peaks near the crystal clear Moraine Lake are also known for providing scenic vistas.</div> <div class="topitem" id="item_k2" style="border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; height: 50px; line-height: 23.799999237060547px; margin: 35px 0px 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> <span class="topnumber" style="background-color: #a64d79; border: 0px; color: white; font-family: inherit; font-size: 26px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: bold; height: 50px; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 15px 20px; vertical-align: baseline;">4</span><span class="toptitle" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: 22px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px 10px; vertical-align: baseline;">K2</span></div> <div class="image_640" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23.799999237060547px; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px; position: relative; vertical-align: baseline;"> <img alt="K2" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3052/3041083811_72d7be6d2e_z.jpg?zz=1" style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; height: auto; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; max-width: 100%; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;" title="K2" width="100%" /><span class="photo-credit" style="border: 0px; bottom: 0px; color: black; font-family: verdana; font-size: 8pt; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: 1.8; margin: 0px; opacity: 0.6; padding: 4px; position: absolute; right: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; z-index: 3;"><br /></span></div> <div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23.799999237060547px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> With a peak elevation of 8,611 meters (28,251 ft), K2 is the second-highest mountain on Earth, after Mount Everest. The mountain is part of the Karakoram range, located on the border between China and Pakistan. K2 is also known as the Savage Mountain due to the difficulty of ascent and one of the highest fatality rate for those who climb it. K2 is notable for its local relief as well as its total height. It stands over 3,000 meters (9,843 ft) above much of the glacial valley bottoms at its base. More extraordinary is the fact that it is a consistently steep pyramid, dropping quickly in almost all directions. An Italian expedition succeeded in ascending to the summit of K2 on July 31, 1954.</div> <div class="topitem" id="item_table_mountain" style="border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; height: 50px; line-height: 23.799999237060547px; margin: 35px 0px 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> <span class="topnumber" style="background-color: #a64d79; border: 0px; color: white; font-family: inherit; font-size: 26px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: bold; height: 50px; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 15px 20px; vertical-align: baseline;">3</span><span class="toptitle" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: 22px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px 10px; vertical-align: baseline;">Table Mountain</span></div> <div class="image_640" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23.799999237060547px; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px; position: relative; vertical-align: baseline;"> <img alt="Table Mountain" src="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/27/98600890_f8e595d7dd_z.jpg?zz=1" style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; height: auto; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; max-width: 100%; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;" title="Table Mountain" width="100%" /><span class="photo-credit" style="border: 0px; bottom: 0px; color: black; font-family: verdana; font-size: 8pt; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: 1.8; margin: 0px; opacity: 0.6; padding: 4px; position: absolute; right: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; z-index: 3;"><br /></span></div> <div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23.799999237060547px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> Table Mountain is a flat-topped mountain overlooking the city of Cape Town in South Africa. It’s main feature is a level plateau approximately 3 kilometers (2 mi) from side to side, surrounded by steep cliffs. The highest point on Table Mountain is 1,086 meters (3,563 ft) above sea level. There is a cableway that takes passengers to the top of the mountain with views overlooking Cape Town, Table Bay and Robben Island to the north, and the Atlantic seaboard to the west and south. António de Saldanha was the first European to land in Table Bay. He climbed the mighty mountain in 1503 and named it ‘Table Mountain’.</div> <div class="topitem" id="item_matterhorn" style="border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; height: 50px; line-height: 23.799999237060547px; margin: 35px 0px 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> <span class="topnumber" style="background-color: #a64d79; border: 0px; color: white; font-family: inherit; font-size: 26px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: bold; height: 50px; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 15px 20px; vertical-align: baseline;">2</span><span class="toptitle" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: 22px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px 10px; vertical-align: baseline;">Matterhorn</span></div> <div class="image_640" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23.799999237060547px; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px; position: relative; vertical-align: baseline;"> <img alt="Matterhorn" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3121/3119529301_c53ea1bc1c_z.jpg?zz=1" style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; height: auto; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; max-width: 100%; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;" title="Matterhorn" width="100%" /><span class="photo-credit" style="border: 0px; bottom: 0px; color: black; font-family: verdana; font-size: 8pt; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: 1.8; margin: 0px; opacity: 0.6; padding: 4px; position: absolute; right: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; z-index: 3;"><br /></span></div> <div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23.799999237060547px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> The Matterhorn is a famous mountain and an iconic emblem of the Swiss Alps. The mountain derives its name from the German words Matte, meaning meadow, and Horn, which means peak. With its 4,478 metres (14,692 ft) high summit, lying on the border between Switzerland and Italy, it is one of the highest peaks in the Alps. It is also one of the deadliest peaks in the Alps. From the first time it was climbed in 1865 to 1995, 500 alpinists have died on it. The Matterhorn’s faces are steep, and only small patches of snow and ice cling to them while regular avalanches send the snow down to accumulate on the glaciers at the base of each face.</div> <div class="topitem" id="item_mount_everest" style="border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; height: 50px; line-height: 23.799999237060547px; margin: 35px 0px 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> <span class="topnumber" style="background-color: #a64d79; border: 0px; color: white; font-family: inherit; font-size: 26px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: bold; height: 50px; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 15px 20px; vertical-align: baseline;">1</span><span class="toptitle" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: 22px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px 10px; vertical-align: baseline;">Mount Everest</span></div> <div class="image_640" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23.799999237060547px; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px; position: relative; vertical-align: baseline;"> <img alt="#1 of Mountains Of The World" src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1164/538538099_4b6bbdc3ef_z.jpg?zz=1" style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; height: auto; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; max-width: 100%; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;" title="#1 of Mountains Of The World" width="100%" /><span class="photo-credit" style="border: 0px; bottom: 0px; color: black; font-family: verdana; font-size: 8pt; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: 1.8; margin: 0px; opacity: 0.6; padding: 4px; position: absolute; right: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; z-index: 3;"><br /></span></div> <div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23.799999237060547px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> At 8,848 meters (29,029 ft), Mount Everest is the highest mountain on Earth. It is located on the border between Nepal and Tibet. The highest mountain in the world attracts climbers of all levels, from well experienced mountaineers to novice climbers willing to pay substantial sums to professional mountain guides to complete a successful climb. Although other eight-thousanders such as K2 are much more difficult to climb, Mount Everest still has many inherent dangers such as altitude sickness, weather and wind. People who die during the climb are typically left behind and it is not uncommon to find corpses near the standard climbing routes. On May 29, 1953, Sherpa Tenzing Norgay Sherpa and New Zealander Edmund Percival Hillary were the first to climb to the summit of Everest.</div> </div>
