Bells where people are supposed to write their wishes/prayers on and hang on the sides of the steps. There are 365 steps all the way to the bottom, one step for every day of the year.

Dining area with glass windows so that we could have a view of the mountains. The clouds were below us I swear.

Eagle soaring.

My brother and my room! There was a glass window on the ceiling so that we could view stars at night but it just kept raining the whole night!!! What a waste right, if the sky was clear the view would be amazing because we were so high up on the mountains.

Fake fireplace to keep us warm at night haha. Temperature was around 11 degrees in the afternoon.

It was getting misty already with all the clouds coming in.
