The Golden Rock’s Hti (Spire)

i hitch hiked for two hours at the back of a crazy chicken pick up truck, half an hour on an over crowded bus, a night in a bug infested guesthouse, hopped onto the back of yet another pick up truck which personified the definition of insanity, and walked a knee crushingly steep hour to get to the top of Mount Kyaitiyo, east of that controversial town of Bago in Myanmar.

there stood before me, a massive boulder, painted completely in gold, delicately balancing over a dangerour cliff.
