More about this scene
Entry to the chasm was relatively expensive in Victorian times. One guidebook writer noted that 'entrance to the Chine is through a bazaar, where one must either make a purchase or pay sixpence before he descends to this great chasm, echoing the ocean waves that break on the beach below'.
