TIGER'S NEST: SPECTACULAR VIEW–MAGICAL DAY




Tiger's Nest has intrigued me for many years because of its history, its importance to the culture of the Buddhist people and its precarious perch 11,000 feet into the sky. Built in 1692, it has to be one of the architectural wonders of the world.
Trekking up to the top was an exhilarating experience.






I'm halfway there, but it still looks so far away.










Eye to eye with The Tiger's Nest meant following a trail straight down, crossing a bridge and trekking straight back up to the top. No pictures were allowed once we arrived; however, there were many more steps to work our way into the buildings and view points.
