Explanation:

Himalayan Mountains are also known as roof of the world. It is because the highest mountain such as mount Everest and K 2 are present in this mountain range. Due to hight, the clouds that comes from the indian ocean stop at these mountains and does not go further which causes rainfall in these mountains and the north side of these mountain receives no rainfall from indian ocean. Due to no or less rainfall, these places turn into deserts.
