Vue imprenable depuis la tour d' observation. 360° pour observer les joyaux culturels de cette belle ville. Cependant, j'ai trouvé la visite plutôt rapide.

The view was great. The entrance was almost impossible to find. Nobody knew anything about it. There were no signs to be found.

The experience wasn’t exceptional.. the deck wasn’t properly maintained. I went there at night and I saw the city from only one side .. doesn’t offer 360 degree view as it claims..
