What is the highest place on Earth

What is the highest place on Earth?

The highest place on earth is the top of Mount Everest, which stands between the countries of Tibet and Nepal, in Asia.
When we want to find out how high a mountaintop is, we can’t just measure the mountain—we have to measure all the land it’s sitting on, too.
To do that, we must go to where the land begins—at the top of the sea.
That way, we can measure all the land that slopes up from the sea to the very top of the mountain.
When we measure something this way, we are measuring from sea level. All the land in the world is either above or below sea level.
The top of Mount Everest, the highest place in the world, is 29,028 feet (8,848 meters) above sea level.
