      No, but it doesn’t take that long to climb. Plus there’s tons of shops at the base and some at the top as well.

        Hmm, seems about 30 flights so a rough guess of about 15 stories high? That’s not too bad, assuming the thing doesn’t collapse.

          It’s ~600 feet up…

          That’s a far cry from 15 stories

            The part in the picture? Those flights don’t look excessive but maybe the scale is messing with me? Or maybe there’s a lot more stairs further down?

          Yeah, I had the fortunate opportunity to visit thanks to a friend when I was on a work trip in Medellin, Colombia many years ago.
