Himalaya
The Himalayas (Himalaya) is the largest high mountain system in the world and lies between the Indian subcontinent in the south and the Tibetan highlands in the north. The mountain range extends over a length of around 3,000 kilometers from Pakistan to Burma (Myanmar) and reaches a maximum width of 350 kilometers. Ten of the fourteen 8000-meter peaks are in the Himalayas, including Mount Everest, the highest mountain on Earth. Nanga Parbat is geographically part of the Himalayas and thus forms the westernmost spur of the mountain range, where the Karakorum borders the Himalayas.

Karakorum
Karakorum: The second highest mountain range in the world with the K2 at 8,611 m (28,251 ft) extends over the north of Pakistan, India, and the southwest of China. Together with Broad Peak at 8,051 m (26,414 ft), Gasherbrum I / Hidden Peak at 8,080 m (26,509 ft), and Gasherbrum II at 8,034 m (26,358 ft) there are four eight-thousanders / 8000m-peaks in the Karakoram.
