On the second day of the visit to Mt. Wudang, we set out to go all the way up to the highest point of the mountain which is 1612 meters above sea level! The journey up the mountain to the cable car station is 1 hour! And the mountain trial is really crazy!

When we reach the cable car station, the clouds are all forming around, and the weather is so cooling and shiok! The air up there is also super fresh, and it really makes you feel refreshed and clears your mind!

When Ah De and me were taking the cable car up the mountain, it was quite a scary ride because the speed of the cable car is really slow, plus the cable car itself is shaking. But both us were thinking not about ourselves but our friend Chin Xiang! Because he is afraid of height! =X thankfully he manage to overcome his fear! =)

It was really a great trip up at the top of the mountain! I really feel that I have really seen what China’s history and beauty is all about. I know well that what I have seen is only just a little part of the beauty of china, but I do hope and wish that I will get the chance to travel to other parts of China and truly enjoy and taste the true beauty of her! =)
