Encyclopedic overview

Kula Kangri is a mountain in the Eastern Himalayas that has an elevation of 7,538 metres (24,731 ft), making it the 45th highest mountain on Earth and one of the Ultras of the Himalayas.

Bhutan once claimed Kula Kangri. The claim was relinguished in the 1980s, with Bhutan attributing it to a cartographic error. The current borderline runs through the higher Gangkar Puensum.
