Photographer’s Note
Scenic route of Xihai Grand Canyon in Huangshan stretches about 10km long and offers many absolutely breathtaking views. I don´t recommend this to anybody suffering of vertigo but otherwise seemingly dangerous route is safe although it is occasionally closed during storms, thunder, hard rain and if there is ice or snow.
If you close enough you can see a group of people on the far left end of the stairway. From us it took about 6 hours to walk the whole route and we stopped very often to take photos or just to rest because the stairs are very steep in many places.
Don´t ask me how the Chinese built this.

Hello Pekka,
A new variety of the Chinese Wall..!
A stunning place, but regretfully nothing for me with my fear of heights...
A well composed documentary, telling the story well!
Greetings,

Hi Pekka.
What nice and impressive place. The vertical is a good choice, but I think an horizontal one would be nice too.
Regards.
