The Himalayas and Tibetan Plateau formed from the collision of the Indian and Eurasian Plates around 50 million years ago. This process continues today, with the Indian Plate pushing northward, causing the mountains to rise gradually each year.

The Himalayas formed about 40-50 million years ago when the Indian Plate collided with the Eurasian Plate. This collision caused the land to buckle and rise, creating the mountain range. The process continues today, making the Himalayas grow even higher.
