Explanation by: Admin
The Pamir Mountains are a mountain range in Central Asia formed by the junction or knot of the Himalayas, Tian Shan, Karakoram, Kunlun, and the Hindu Kush ranges.

They are among the world’s highest mountains and since Victorian times they have been known as the “Roof of the World” a probable translation from Persian.
