Challenge the Red Cloud Golden Summit|2336-meter emotional journey

At first, I thought the path to the Red Cloud Golden Summit was just a "slightly steeper stone staircase." Halfway through, I noticed staff controlling the number of people and thought to myself: Could it be that the difficult part is about to start? Sure enough, after passing them, the trail became rugged. When I saw the second staff member, I knew the real challenge was ahead ⚠️. Using both hands and feet, gripping the iron chains, I climbed step by step. The path was indeed steep, and maintaining distance and ensuring safety were the top priorities. After enduring a long stretch, I finally reached a platform. However, the weather today was not as expected, and visibility was poor 🌫️. Thinking I was almost there, I turned a corner only to find the most challenging section was still ahead. It was almost a vertical climb! 💦 Thankfully, it was just a short segment. Passing through Guanyin Cave and threading through the narrow "One-Line Sky," the destination was finally in sight. The Red Cloud Golden Summit stands at an altitude of 2336 meters. The mountain top is split into two, connected only by a stone bridge spanning a bottomless abyss—it's enough to make your legs tremble 😳. Each peak hosts a temple: the left dedicated to Shakyamuni and the right to Maitreya Buddha. The area is perpetually surrounded by red clouds, hence the name "Golden Summit Red Cloud." 📌 Honest recommendation: If you dare to try, this is a once-in-a-lifetime experience worth the climb!
