From wikipedia:
The Cliff Palace is the largest cliff dwelling in North America. The structure built by the Ancient Pueblo Peoples is located in Mesa Verde National Park in their former homeland region. The cliff dwelling and park are in the southwestern corner of Colorado, in the Southwestern United States.
The Cliff Palace contains 23 kivas (round sunken rooms of ceremonial importance), and 200 rooms. One kiva, in the center of the ruin, is at a point where the entire structure is partitioned by a series of walls with no doorways or other access portals. The walls of this kiva were plastered with one color on one side and a different color on the opposing side.
The site was inhabited in the 13th century and was abandoned by the year 1300.

The view is northeasterly, parallel to the length of the lake and the strike of the rocks. Porcupine Mountain Wilderness State Park in Michigan's Upper Peninsula.
