insider tips/trivia

If you are interested in riding the lifts, be prepared for long lines. It's about 350 steps to the first level, then it's another 400 steps to the second level and the lift to the top. The levels where Bond and May Day fight are between the 2nd and 3rd levels and are not accessible to the public.
