Otoko-Zaka (Men's slope)
That you climb the stone stairway called "Men's slope" for the stone stairway that an incline is hard, the person that heart and a knee is weak, I do not recommend to climb up and down.
There is "Women's slope" into the right hand of Men's slope, it is a loose slope compare with the other one.
