The forest of spiral stairs is packed in high density. Some of steps are connected with that of adjoining stairs, but all of steps of neighboring stairs are not on the same or next level which visitors can transfer between different two spiral stairs. They move from one stairs to another only at a constant interval, otherwise they couldn't attain new route and view. Some visitors deviate from an evolving motion and goes into new orbit unknowingly and wander through three-dimensional maze. It doesn't have the upper floor as a goal only to jump into another stairs on the way. Visitors will find themselves left high and dry to stop on a step, collapse on it and see those around with some objectively, then go down a stairs straight.
