Mars never seems to disapoint when it comes to amazing images. Here’s a stereoscopic image grabbed from the Mars Express spacecraft of Echus Chasma. Here you can see where liquid water was present on the surface of Mars at some time in the past (click the image for a much larger version). 4000 meter high cliffs would I think give an amazing view of the valley below.
From the European Space Agency:
Echus Chasma is bounded to the west by the Echus Chasma plateau which lies about 4 km above the Echus Chasma floor. On the plateau are deeply incised valleys which connect to the Echus Chasma valley.
