Mt. Ai-Petri

Mt. Ai-Petri

[ July, 2013 ] We went up Mt.Ai-Petri by cable car.

Its hight is 1234m.

I did not know this mountain until I came here, but for the local people it seemed very popular and the station was chaotic.

Here, Svetlana, the guide exercised her power and we could cut in the long queue and stood in front ( I would have been very angry if I were the one standing in the queue for a long time).

This cable car consists of two parts and you change the carriage on the way.

The second part is unsupported and goes up and up along the sheer cliff.

It was an interesting experience.

And the view from the top was fantastic.

Most of the people including us stay at this point (1176m), but you can walk up to the very top.

And there, they were testing their courage as you can see in the photo.
