👍👍 A quick walk from the parking lot. Scenery is incredible, just wish that other visitors were as courteous as the signs request. These are a historical monument, not a platform for influencer yoga.

👍👍 I had a really nice visit. I recommend bringing at least one friend along: it makes it easier to take photos, although there are plenty of helpful staff around who can do this as well.
