Sixty-five steps carved directly into the promontory rock, the Queens [sic] Staircase connects the lower town to the fortifications above. Slaves carved the steps by hand in 1773-74 into the 102' (31m), solid limestone cliff.

(Note: Saw it on my honeymoon. Too bad the dates don't match our Virtual Experience. Local legend was that the steps were carved to honor Queen Victoria's reign—one step for every year. –ML)

(Note: I call BS, Queen Victoria wasn't born yet in 1774. –JM)

(Note: They saw it coming! Anyways, it's a cool structure. I say we sneak it in. –RL)

(Note: No fudging dates! –DM)

(Note: D, you're such a killjoy. –RL)

(Note: It's too iconic to leave out. It goes in. –OG)
