Beijing Olympic Flame Atop Mt. Qomolangma
Chinese climbers display Olympic torches, an Olympic flame lantern, a flag of International Olympic Committee, a Chinese National flag and a flag of the 29th Olympic Games at the top of the 8844.43-meter summit of Mt. Qomolangma in southwest China's Tibet Autonomous Region on May 8, 2008. Having promised to take the Olympic flame to the world's highest peak in Beijing's bidding campaign, organizers selected a team of 36 torch climbers, 19 of which were picked for the final mission starting from the 8,300-meter-high camp at 3 a.m. Beijing Time. The flame was carried to the top of Mount Qomolangma at 9:18 a.m. Beijing Time on Thursday. (Xinhua)
