It is a Long Way Down Huangshan 黄山
Walking up or down mountains was never my forte. I love the idea of being “one with nature” and all that but I guess I was just wasn’t built for that kind of stuff. Here were at making our way down the mountain. You would think that going down the mountain will be a piece of cake, but after a while the continuous impact on the knees and the legs muscles trying to cushion the impact is starting to take its toll.
Stairs Carved Out of Rock in Huangshan 黄山
The Western steps is a long path down the mountain and it is sufficiently long enough to make it feel deserted. However, once in a while we would encounter some people walking down the mountain, yes, overtaking us. These were young Chinese kids who would run down the steps at a dangerous pace. Although nothing happened when as they were going down, we would be cautious each time something like that would pass us by since it is a long way down the mountain if something happens.
