This is the view from the top of the Church of Our Savior, sometimes called the spiral church as there are some 500 steps or so to the top and often room for only 1 at a time. It's crowded and not an easy climb and certainly not if you're overweight, but if you can get to the top, it's a great reward.

Photography Tips

Obviously golden hour. Since I didn't have the chance to be there then, I shot this as a tilt-shift effect. A telephoto lens is useful but a 50mm will get great cityscape views. No room for a tripod. Because of the great effort required to climb, don't carry a big bag or lots of gear.
