204 steps

To get to the top of the Campanile you have to climb 204 steps which, obviously, you also need to take to get back to the bottom. If you don't take it easy going up, its needless to say that you will be out of breath. But going down at a fast rate will leave you dizzy in the head.

  3. Daunting, for sure! I've climbed a few of these circular staircases over the years. Usually worth the effort, though.

  4. I always find gong down a lot of staris worse - you get dizzy and your legs end up shaking! On the way up, it's just the breathlessness :) love the vertigo-inducing shot!
