It is on the border between Nepal and Tibet, a part of China. Just type Mount Everest in Yahoo search or Google search and you will get a lot of information including National Geographic's site.

I thought maybe you might also like to know that Mt. Everest is constantly growing! It is still being pushed up from beneath by techtonic plates. I found one site for you that has the height as of 1999:
Growing Pains
Adjusting to Everest's new height

Future generations will remember Everest's new height: two extra meters have rounded out the number. (Source/Nelson Chenkin)
If the number 29,028 is seared into your mind along with 1066, 1492, and other seemingly immutable figures, get ready for a big change in the holy canon of statistics. That number, of course, was the elevation—in feet—of the world's highest mountain.
As of Nov. 11, 1999, the new official height of Mt. Everest was announced as 29,035 feet.
