Japanalia from Yokohama, Japan
This is again very beautiful! I cannot believe that there are people who actually go up there!!! The shot draws you in!

@Japanalia: Yes, people mountain climb here. Even a hike might involve walking along a narrow ledge holding onto a chain. Not for the faint-hearted. It took me awhile to screw up enough nerve to go on some of these trails. Thank you, Gabriela.
