It stretches approximately 1,000 kilometres (620 mi) north to south and 2,500 kilometres (1,600 mi) east to west. The average elevation is over 4,500 metres (14,800 ft), and all 14 of the world’s 8,000 metres (26,000 ft) and higher peaks are found in the region. Sometimes called 'the roof of the world,' it is the highest and biggest plateau, with an area of 2.5 million km2 (0.97 million sq. mi., or about four times the size of France). 3
