The Himalayas.
They are both the result of plate tectonics. The Andes mountains are the result of plate tectonics when the so-called South American plate was forced upwards by two other plates covered by oceans that drifted under and into it. The Himalayas formed when the Indian subcontinent drifted northwards and finally bumped into South Asia. The enormous mass of the Indian continent meant that on contact this drift did not immediately stop, but India kept forcing itself nothwards, forcing the earth before it up and 'folding' it into mountains. To this day this drift continues, at a pace of almost 7 centimeters a year.
The Himalayas and the Hindu KushThe Himalayan Mountains separate India from the rest of Asia. Currently, India is part of Asia, though it is believed that they use to be part of Africa, and then became a subcontinent, and then became joint with Asia, the shifting of the plates is what is believed to have formed these mountain ranges.
Indian Ocean is the geographical barrier between India and Africa .
A catchy slogan for the Himalayas could be: "Embrace the Majesty, Conquer the Heights!" This phrase encapsulates the awe-inspiring beauty and adventure that the Himalayas offer, inviting explorers and nature lovers to experience its grandeur.
when was the Himalayas formed?
The Himalayas.
The Himalayas are a mountain range in Asia. They are being formed by the Indian subcontinent submerging under the Asian continent.
the Himalayas were formed by a collision plate boundary, meaning that the plates collided and formed the Himalayas. The Himalayas are also referred to as 'fold mountains' because of the way in which they are made.

The most notable are the Himalayas, formed when India (on the Indo-Australian plate) drove north into Asia.

Mount Everest, which is found in the Himalayas mountain range
The Himalayas were formed at a convergent plate margin where the Indian Plate collided with the Eurasian Plate. This collision resulted in the uplift of the Himalayan mountain range.
They were all formed at convergent boundaries
the humans of Himalaya built them
The Himalayas were formed by the collision of the Eurasian plate (continental) and the Indo-Australian plate (continental).
