This mountain is forbidden and no one could climb it for a strange reason

But in this case, there is the Gangkhar Puensum, a mountain with a height of 7570 metros located between the border of Bhutan and China. and depending on the medium National Geographicis in position number 45 of the largest mountains in the world.

But there is a particular issue, which places it as an impossible place to climb.

Why?

At the end of twentieth centuryin between 1983 y 1994, Butane allowed people to climb the mountain without any problem, until in 2004 the same country eliminated this possibility to respect several of its cultural traditions. The Asian country shared an official statement at the time to explain that there are spirits there that cannot be disturbed. For them, from 6,000 meters above sea level, the earth is much more sacredindicates La Nación with information from El Tiempo (Colombia).

Despite the fact that Bhutan placed a restriction, it is not the only problem that arises with Gangkhar Puensum, since being located between the border of the two Asian countries generates a legal discussion about which nation this land belongs to. As explained on the YouTube channel @unmundoinmenso, Bhutan has a very different policy than its neighbor, Nepal, where the activity is highly developed. In such a way that it could be overexploited, causing environmental problems..

In 1998 both countries signed an agreement in which it was established to maintain peace on the border. At the same time, China recognized that Bhutan was an independent nation, but still built roads outside its zone, causing tension between the nations to rise again.
