10) And of course the tower itself. By the way, if you are thinking to visit it, be prepared for the fact that you have to climb on foot to a height of 60 meters on the spiral staircase. Elevator available there, but not working. The tower has two observation decks, while fully open only the lower and the upper glazed, but has a small window, through which and had to withdraw. Upper Playground swings in the wind, and from there move on tourists, so there is shooting in the dark was not just part of the staff had to be removed from the bottom of the tower site.
