The Himalayas are young fold mountains. The range was formed when the Indio-australian tectonic plane collided with the Euro-asian tectonic plane. The where we find the Himalayas today was previously filled with sediments, which was carried by the rivers of the Euro-asian plane. When the two previously mentioned plane collided this sediment folded to form the Himalayan range.
