The Mount Hua are arguably the most beautiful and a must-see attraction if you're anywhere close to the area. Normally, climbing a majestic mountain such as the Mount Hua in China would be a task reserved for expert hikers, but this particular mountain can actually be tackled by pretty much anyone with little courage and thanks to a series of sturdy and very useful steps. Because the mountainous weather is hit-or-miss any time of year, your best bet is to budget at least a few days of exploring and hiking Mount Hua to maximize your chances of clear weather. But don't worry - there are plenty of spectacular hikes around the 72 sheer rock cliffs.
The Western Steps comprise no less than 60,000 granite steps that embrace one if China's tallest and most beautiful mountains, and even though tourists also have the opportunity to take a cable car up to the top of this natural landmark, using the steps is definitely a more fulfilling experience by far. However, if you do plan to visit Mount Hua and climb it using the aforementioned staircase, you should make sure that you are physically fit for the challenge, since it may take you up to 6 hours to get to the top.
