Maybe not when you are going down, but for sure when you are coming back up!
You know, the older I get, the more true the reverse seems: going down has become the hard part! But maybe that is just me. A lifetime of jogging might have made my knees especially sensitive. Anyway, if I can ever start traveling again, maybe in a few years when the kids get older, remind me to visit some of the temples here with a number of stairs to dwarf that. There is one famous temple I remember that I had to climb over 1000 stairs (a fact they happily told on multiple signs along the way)
Anyway, great photos and looks like a great place.
