on Jan 27th, 2012Where is Mount Kilimanjaro?
South of the equator and on the border between Tanzania and Kenya stands the highest mountain in the world Mount Kilimanjaro, also known as the roof of Africa. There are three summits atop this mountain and there names are: Shira, Kibo and Mawenzi. Shira and Mawenzi have lost their peaks due to erosion but Kibo, which is the youngest, has not suffered erosion and remains a perfect cone.Mount Kilimanjaro stands at 19,340 feet and has justifiably earned its nickname, the roof of Africa. There more than a thousand people that reached the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro on January 1, 2000 to see the sunrise on the mew millennium from the roof of Africa.
