high altitude ATM

An Indian bank, which operates what it bills as the world's highest ATM in the far-eastern state of Sikkim, is hoping the cash dispenser will bring in business once a trade route to China is reopened.

The automatic teller machine, set up at an altitude of 13,200 feet (4,023 metres) along the winding route that links the Tibetan capital Lhasa to Sikkim's capital Gangtok, has been installed by UTI Bank with the help of US-based NCR Corp., which made the special machine.

Is there anything to spend your money on once you get it out?.. .Maybe the bank should open a souvineer shop and a bar too!
