According to reports in the state run China Daily, a proposed plan for a rail link from China to Nepal could involve boring a tunnel under the 8,850-meter (29,035-foot) Mount Everest. The building of a rail link from Chinese-controlled Tibet to Nepal would need to pass beneath the Himalayan mountain range, according to reports.
