In the shadow of the picturesque Raolin peaks in Jiangxi, China🇨🇳, lies the breathtaking engineering marvel – the Lingshan Genting Staircase.

Stretching 1 236 m in length with a vertical rise of 256 m, it boasts ten escalators that whisk visitors upward as if “flying to the heavens,” while clouds swirl around the soaring views.

Fun fact: The staircase was built in just three years, using locally sourced stone to blend seamlessly with the surrounding landscape. Each step is illuminated at night, turning the ascent into a glittering pathway visible for miles. The design earned a national award for sustainable tourism, proving that modern infrastructure can coexist beautifully with nature.
