Photo by @amivitale. Rooms for rent on the path to Adam's Peak, also called Sri Pada, a sacred mountain in Sri Lanka. People make the pilgrimage overnight so they can arrive to the top for sunrise. Pilgrims from four of the world's major religions, Hinduism, Buddhism, Christianity and Islam, climb the mountain to see the sacred footprint, a formation which in Buddhist tradition is held to be the footprint of the Buddha, in Hindu tradition that of Shiva and in Islamic and Christian traditions that of Adam or of St. Thomas. #onassignment for @natgeo. #srilanka #sripada #adamspeak #southasia #nikon #d4s #nikonambassador #amivitale #photojournalism @natgeocreative @thephotosociety @nikonusa
