As if the cable car ride up the moun­tain was not thrilling enough, once we reached the top of Tian­men moun­tain, we were led around a cement trail atop the cir­cum­fer­ence of the moun­tain. No pic­ture is enough to cap­ture what was mag­nif­i­cent and com­pletely mind-blowing at the same time. Look­ing off into the haze of clouds that swirled beneath us, I felt like I was look­ing out of the win­dow of an airplane…but yet I was stand­ing with a hand touch­ing the face of a moun­tain on my other side.

I don’t know if you’ve ever walked around a mountain.…but it was my first time.

Sec­tions of glass-bottomed paths pro­vided a truly exhil­a­rat­ing expe­ri­ence. Seri­ously, where else on the earth can you walk out on an I-beam sup­ported glass walk­way to what seems like.…nowhere?
