And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Caltagirone, scalinata di Santa Maria del monte. Don't trip and fall at the top.
That reminds me of the Midtown MARTA station in Atlanta its over 200 steps from street level to the platform 120' below ground. I only ever climbed it once...and less than half way to the top decided: never again.
Point Reyes, Marin County California. 300 steps down and 300 steps to go back up, even has rest stops benches for those that thought they could handle that many steps at once down and up.
i would love to launch a slinky off of that.

I’ll just take the elevator.
