Hey all, I recently visited a beautiful national park in China called Zhang Jia Jie and I wanted to share one of its many features with the Steemit community.
Welcome to the gorgeous Tian Men Shan (Sky Door Mountain)!
True to its name, this mountain features a gaping hole that resembles a door leading up into the sky. In 1999, three aircraft successfully completed a stunt in which they flew through the hole.
There are a total of 999 steps along the stairway that lead up to the entrance of the hole. I managed to complete this climb in a little under 12 minutes, and I was EXHAUSTED. However, the view more than made up for it. You can see other tourists trying to complete this journey as well!
I was rewarded with this amazing view of the landscape and the tourist-based city of Zhang Jia Jie off in the distance. I'm really glad I fought the heat to make it all the way up the mountain!
