Sacred Mountain

To get to the cave paintings we had to climb a sacred mountain in the heat. Which none of us were very enthusiastic about.

The mountain is covered in lichen, which made it very pretty and colourful.

There was no other vegetation. The hard rock doesn’t absorb water, and it all runs off unless it collects in pools.

From the top of the mountain you could see the surrounding farms.

You are allowed to climb the sacred mountain, but you are not allowed to point at it. We are not sure why.

But we are glad we got to climb it because it was a really pretty view.
