Have you ever been?
The picture below popped up on my computer when I opened Bing today. This place looks so amazing I was curious if any Taucktourians have visited this place. If so, did you climb to the top (if you're even allowed to)?
The place is Mount Fanjing in SW China. If you were wondering there are 8,888 steps to get to the top.

I think Alan should go there to train for his Petra hike.
Or he could go here: https://www.visitcos.com/things-to-do/outdoors/manitou-incline-near-colorado-springs-colorado/
P.S. Haven't been.
P.P.S. Bing still exists?
I'll take the elevator inside the left spire.
Hope you can find a similar elevator to the Monastery!
I think they moved the Giza Stargate there.
Smiling Sam compared to 8,888 steps, climbing The Monastery is a piece of cake.
AlanS...I have no doubt you can do it
I went to Egypt and Jordan in 2007 and while in Petra climbed to the Monastery, it's not a bad climb I'm sure it'll be fine for you Alan. Our tour director arranged for us to ride donkeys half way down, only 8 of us did the climb.
PureLuxury, gladysorlando984 - You may be giving AlanS way too much credit. AlanS is the person that is afraid that the water will be TOO COLD to swim in the Dead Sea!!! 😂
