1.Climb the historic 99 Steps

As you climb the 99 Steps, a staircase built by the Danes in order to make it easier to get around the steep terrain of St. Thomas Island, you’ll be stepping through history.
With steps made of old stone and surrounding colorful gardens, the photos you can get here will be well worth the steep climb. Not to mention it’s surrounded by other iconic landmarks such as Fort Christian and Blackbeard’s Castle.

These step remind me of last john wick movie. Haha.... I know they shot it in paris tho...
