The camp is built at a beautiful location and there are lots to do here. There are several activities you can take part in and also choose to go on a guided hike which is a great way to spend some time in the middle of nature. The scenic views are just amazing here and you fall in love with the serenity of this place.

We have visited a lot of parks but this was simply amazing. The walking trail was filled with lush green trees and the pathway was just beautiful. The lake and the mountain in the park are stunning and they also have a kids play area which is a plus for us.

This is a beautiful city which is known for its historic locations with so many stories associated with it. There are plenty of locations and lots to see here. It is a place where you will never be bored. Take a guided tour and make sure you visit all the places and trust me it will be worth it.. This is an amazing street with lots of ancient buildings and so many shops from where you can purchase so many things. The street is the most happening point of the city and has a lot to see and do. A lot of great cafes and restaurants are also there which are the best places to try out some tasty food and indulge in nice drinking. It was a great experience.. It was a gorgeous day and we decided to have a picnic in the beautiful park surrounded by nature and beauty. The place had beautiful scenic scenes and with some homemade food, we loved the refreshing and calming experience.

We were so excited to visit this place but were thoroughly disappointed while reaching and looking at the mismanaged affair. The place was crowded with tourists and there was no system to arrange them. The staff was also very rude.
