5. And now the criticism is easy. First, the entrance to the elevator decent turn. Since all take place entirely from the Chinese, it is not a very good - the people around is not considered shameful to discuss something, shouting in his ear or just lean on you, etc. The ticket office contrary wind howled, ticket prices between 50 and 150 yuan. The higher the more expensive. Taking the most expensive ticket you think that there will be less people and very often the intelligentsia, but in fact turns out that all just take the most expensive tickets, so all the lifts freely, and the elevator to the top floor stand 20 minutes 84,552,312

It was found out when we look at what it all somewhere. He stood up. It turned out that it was in a glass booth ochred projecting for the overall circumference of the tower. Actually all the Chinese people stand to take pictures there. Comes a group of four, for example, and then removed the combination: the first with the second, the first to the third, the first to the fourth, the first with the second and third, etc. For every human combination accounted for another N-tion of interesting poses and gestures from each of the participants.
