Really nice and contrasty, they were great builders, did you go down at night, it should have been interesting.

Thanks, and yes at night I would be spectacular but they close the place around 5pm and everyone have to leave. They actually check the whole place so that nobody stays behind for the night

Thanks Amazing place but if you do go, forget organized trips and go by yourself. This way you can stay until closing time and enjoy the sunset and do not have to deal with the huge amount of groups of tourists who arrive in the morning to see the sunrise and then leave around noon I stayed until I was told to leave, and even took one hour nap which was super cool and relaxing

Exceptional photograph. B+W perfect choice. Looks like it is out of the pages of an old National Geographic magazine.
