Two streets in the USA are named after the highest mountain, Mt. Everest. One is in New York, Jackson Heights area and another in California.

The New York one was recently named. One of the Councillors of the city inaugurated the street. Nepali people in the area organized a street festival with various cultural programs. The Nepali ambassador and others were also present in the ceremony.

Here is a video report:

That is not all, United Kingdom has various roads named after Nepali people and places. They also have Everest roads. But, I am not sure if they are named after the Nepali mountain or a person named Everest.

I will prepared a report on the streets named after Nepali in UK in a separate post.
