Which mountain, Mount Gongga or Gasherbrum I, is the 11th highest mountain in the world?
Gasherbrum I Gasherbrum I (Urdu: ‎ ; ), surveyed as K5 and also known as Hidden Peak, is the 11th highest mountain in the world at 8080 m above sea level. It is located on the Pakistani–Chinese border in Gilgit–Baltistan region of Pakistan and Xinjiang region of China. Gasherbrum I is part of the Gasherbrum massif, located in the Karakoram region of the Himalaya. Gasherbrum is often claimed to mean "Shining Wall", presumably a reference to the highly visible face of the neighboring peak Gasherbrum IV; but in fact it comes from "rgasha" (beautiful) + "brum" (mountain) in Balti, hence it actually means "beautiful mountain."
