Changtse (Standard Tibetan: བྱང་རྩེ, lit. 'north peak', Chinese: 章子峰) is a mountain situated between the Main Rongbuk and East Rongbuk Glaciers in Tibet Autonomous Region, China, immediately north of Mount Everest. It is connected to Mount Everest via the North Col.
The given elevation of 7,543 metres is from modern Chinese mapping. Some authorities give 7,583 metres instead.
The Changtse Glacier flows north into the East Rongbuk Glacier. It is possible that the third highest lake in the world[2] is in the Changtse Glacier at 6,216 metres (20,394 ft).
