A thousand two hundred and two steps to go....


For those of you who don't know me well enough, I absolutely love the outdoors. I've done this climb a few times before, but doing it all over again always instils a fresh sense of adventure. As hard as it may be to lug around the camera gear on an uphill journey like this, it's totally worth it when that elusive picture is finally made. This one was shot just before the climb.

  1. oh my I have been there but couldn't recognize the place in the pic! i didn't notice the beauty of colors in the bricks while climbing those stairs mayb coz it was hot or I was too focused on just making it to the top and the surrounding views.
    Great pic!

    1. Oh yes, I know what you mean. But when you become a seasoned traveller the fine details spring to life. I'm sure you're more than glad that you did the trip.Thanks a lot

    1. Thanks Gayan. No it isn't, but now that you mention it I'm tempted to try it again next time.
