    Try a wide angle lens and shoot just after dawn the low sun will bathe the carved panels in a soft glow and keep the shadows short. Stand at the outer arch and tilt the camera slightly upward to capture the full vertical span of the staircase and the first few steps of the subterranean corridor. If you have a spare minute, pause at the left side of the arch; the stone steps there line up neatly and give a clean view of the underground passage in one frame. After you’re done, The Grand Raveta is a short walk away if you need a quick break.
