so many footprints
on the sacred mountain’s path
steps of devotion

My response to Carpe Diem #1737 Introduction to a month full of devotion: Adam’s Peak
We have started a new month of prompts entitled ‘An Act of Devotion’ on the familiar theme of pilgrimages. Today we’re visiting Adam’s Peak in Sri Lanka, a 2243m conical mountain, which is also known as Sri Pada, which translates as ‘Sacred Foot’: Buddhists believe it is the footprint of Buddha; Hindus that it’s the footprint of Shiva; and Muslims and Christians that it’s the footprint of Adam.

What an incredible image! I can understand why people make pilgrimages there.

This image was the only one that didn’t look like all the others on the internet. It does look wonderful. 🙂

I’m so sorry if this is a duplicate comment. I never know if WordPress has sent my comments to a moderation queue or just into limbo forever.
I can certainly understand why people would want to visit this beautiful place.
