About this place
An incredibly steep ancient stone staircase climbing straight up the dense slopes of Geleshan, with significantly more than 300 steps despite the name.
Drifter says
"Entrance near the SISU Old Railway and Lin Zhong Le restaurant. A fit person takes 30 to 45 minutes of solid cardio to reach the top. Steps get extremely slippery after rain — wear shoes with grip. The right combination: Bai Mansion at the base in the morning for the history, climb the stairs to burn it off, then take the vintage cableway back down to save your knees."
