  • I really expected this entrance to be at the base of the rock, but you have to climb about 900 steps to get to here, but it is worth it even if you do not continue on.

  • The main spiral stairs are hugely overcrowded, I recommend to use the entrance from the paws, it will save you hours (and sun burn :) )

  • Lion’s Paw Terrace is the entrance to the rock. It looks a bit mess due to unnecessary alterations.
  • Nice place to rest, in the middle on the way to the top. Too crowded and a bit diffucult to take picture with crowds of people
