The Idea Of Climbing The ‘Peak Of Shanghai’ Was In My Head For A Long Time, So I Finally Did It

ADVERTISEMENT

I guess as any human being I have this simple need of adventure. Going to unknown and testing my own limits. It’s simple for me — it doesn’t matter if it’s the tallest building in the city, what matters is the building’s (or structure’s) complexity and beauty.

I do it because of a pure joy that it gives to me and because it’s the cheapest way to get a solid dose of adrenaline. In a big city such as Shanghai, it’s hard to find a sacred place where you can just relax. For me, it’s a rooftop. It’s the only place where I can clear my mind. So let’s explore Shanghai from the angle you’ve never known before! The idea of that was laying in my head for a long time.

Thanks to my friend – @k3rkis, for capturing the process. The hardest task was how to pull myself on the top and sit on it.

GoodNESS be freaking careful up in those places!! I think it's pretty cool, but as a mom, it worries the dog mess out of me to see ppl do that. I have seen this become a huge trend with ppl in the post few years and so many ppl have list their lives trying to get that picture up as high as they can. I KNOW you hear this nagging ask the time, and I know it's what you love, from what you've said in the post. Just be careful!!
