folding and thrusting himalayas
Fold and thrust mountain ranges can be found at convergent plate boundaries, where two tectonic plates collide. Examples of fold and thrust mountain ranges include the Himalayas in Asia and the Rocky Mountains in North America.
Himalayan mountain range is fold mountain system found in north of Nepal
The Great Dividing Range is a major fold mountain range in Australia. It runs parallel to the eastern coast and influences the climate and geography of the region.
Fold mountains are formed when tectonic plates collide, causing the Earth's crust to crumple and fold. An example of a fold mountain range is the Himalayas in Asia, which were formed by the collision of the Indian and Eurasian plates.
The Himalayan mountain range of Tibet was formed when the Indian Plate and the Eurasian Plate collided nearly 50 million years ago. It is the world's current mountain range and includes the world's tallest mountain, Mount Everest.

When the Indian Plate and Eurasian Plate collided, 50 million years ago and is still continuing today, the crumpling of the land thrust up the Himalayan Mountain Range. One result of the thrust was the folding of the rock layers.
Aravalli range are the oldest fold mountain ranges in India
Mauna Kea is a Shield volcano (a hotspot). Fold mountains are formed by thrust tectonics.
