Will there be snow in the mountains on the equator?

Kilimanjaro, the highest peak in Africa, enjoys the reputation of "the roof of Africa". As early as 150 years ago, westerners have always denied that there will be snow-capped mountains near the equator in Africa. 1848, a German missionary named Rebmann came to East Africa and stumbled upon the wonders of the equatorial snow peak. After returning home, he wrote a travel note and published it in a journal, recording in detail what he saw and heard. However, even Rebmann himself did not think that it was this article that brought him endless troubles. Everyone accused him of spreading heresy out of thin air and having ulterior motives, which wronged the missionaries. 186 1 year, another group of western missionaries and explorers came to Africa, witnessed the snow-capped mountains near the equator with their own eyes and took photos. Westerners began to believe what Rebmann said, thus ending the accusation against him for 13 years. Although some people later denied that there would be snow peaks near the equator in Africa, the existence of snow peaks at the equator has been at least tens of thousands of years.

Mount Kilimanjaro, known as the "equatorial snow peak", is located near the equator in northeastern Tanzania. Surprisingly, this crystal world of ice and snow appears near the equator. On a hot day, from a distance, the blue mountain base is pleasing to the eye, while the top of the snowy mountain seems to hover in the air. Fog that often extends below the snow line deepens this illusion. The temperature at the foot of the mountain is sometimes as high as 59℃, while the temperature at the top of the mountain is often MINUS 34℃, so it is called "equatorial snow peak". Kilimanjaro has been a mysterious and fascinating mountain for centuries-no one really believes that there is such a snow-covered mountain near the equator.
