The world's most remote restaurant?
Somehow I doubt the veracity of this, but an e-mail forward asserts that the mountaintop restaurant in China pictured above offers diners a free lunch...if they can navigate the torturous trail to actually reach the place.

This is Huashan, near Xi'an. The photos are real but arranged in a misleading way. The plank walkway is a short thrill detour/pseudo via ferrata on an otherwise tame hike through what used to be a mountain hermitage. I didn't patronize the teahouse but the promise of a free meal is bogus. LOTS of people go there and there are snack vendors and even places to stay on the mountain.
Beautiful, thanks. Btw, I think you mean "tortuous", not "torturous". But perhaps it's both!

but how i can do it for my grand papa.
Shame I did not enquire about the free meals but somehow I doubt it!
The very dangerous -grab the chain or die- path it is only for those who decide to hike the mountain from the bottom.
Tourists just jump on the cable cars and skip that piece along with a 4 hour hike. Once you are on the top, its a little more adventurous than anything you'd find hiking a mountain in the states but not life threatening.
Awesome views from up there :D
"I'm going to work"
"how do you get down?"
Simple, how did you get there? ;^)

I don't believe people really climb this mountain expecting a restaurant on top!!!
But if its true about the free lunch - then how do they stay in business?
......OR CAN YOU???
..you cant.
2 stars (out of 4)
D'oh.
The architecture in the top is a temple of Daoisme, build in the begining of Qing dynasty,Founded in the early Qing, but smaller shape.After weeks of contemplation over the temple by the sermons in this release, coz his erudition and talent,lots of follower coming ,the incense of the temple become very rich and busy , even more than other temples in the montain ,thus also expanding rehabilitation. Tripitaka building to build, especially the Huashan Taoist Scriptures are the precious wealth of Taoism, 20 year regret that the Republic of China (1932) all of the whole building with all the volumes were destroyed by the fires.Two years after ,the Republic of China rebuilt it , after numerous repairs ,after 1949, another party are continue be repaired.
This building is build with woods and stones , sculpture windows, it composed by two temple,two floors, also have the side hall in the west and east, In the centre of the temple ,there is a sculpture of Marici .

I guess the "restaurant " is just a Charity for the temple,it is kind of tradition Chinese culture , there is no real restaurant up there . Try to imagine everybody arrive in the top , they need food ans water of course !!
This mose higher montrain just have one way to the top .
I hate congee.
This is Montain Hua in China, the most interesting is not the restaurant but to clamb the montain .
This montain have lots of history in the ancient and lots of poet and writer talking about it , also lot of kings go there....it exist in love of poem and novel also .
Read carefully the WIKI then you will discover the extrodinary history , geography , culture of this montain.
And don't forgot go there have the great experience !!
Makes my imagination run wild thinking of building a small stone shelter hidden away behind a rock on top of the world.
