Explore the Himalayan Sea


The Himalayan Sea is one of the worlds largest bodies of water, a lot of the water in the Himalayas comes from its tributaries. The river systems that help the Himalayas contain most of its water include the mighty Ganges, the Brahmaputra, the Ox-and-Tibet rivers and the Kangding River.

In ancient times, this vast body of water was called Sholankundra, and at the time, many peoples migrated there, some to conquer and others to farm. It was the Huns, who first found it to be a source of great wealth as the rivers served as trading routes, oil supplies and a way to transport heavy stones.

During World War II, the warring countries of India and China fought over the mines and precious metals within the Himalayan Mountains. Most of the minerals were stolen by the Japanese, but some were spirited away by the Chinese.

After that war, the countries of India and China established their control over the Indian part of the mountain range, which included almost 90% of the river systems. Later, the Chinese forced the Indians to evacuate the area around the Pakistan border, thus the Shan States was created. The Chinese named the new state of Kashmir after their nation.

After the partition of India and Pakistan, the Kashmir Valley was divided between the two countries and was given to India by the UN. Now the Indian part of the Himalayas is named as Indian Himalayas.
