They are the highest mountain range in the world outside of Asia. The Eastern Himalayas act as a barrier to the Northeastern monsoons, reducing their impact on Arunachal Pradesh.

The leeward side of the mountains, which includes Arunachal Pradesh, is much drier.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Join Our Telegram Channel Subscribe on
