Home to mythical kingdoms, battles and expeditions, and magical beasts, the Himalayas have always loomed tall in our imaginations. Twigger takes a journey through the history of the world's greatest mountain range, and explores them as a central hub of the world's religion, as well as a climber's challenge and a traveler's dream.
