This was our 5th time visiting this camp and the scenery and the service including the facilities are just awesome. You have to look out for the best time to visit the camp because winters could be too cold and for some not a feasible option. Even though you can enjoy the winterland, you have to be fully equipped with everything.

This place was not the main attraction on our list but we decided to take a little detour and visit this place and see the bizz for ourselves. Honestly, there is not so much to see except for the town hall city market which is the only happening place here and also has few really nice restaurants. Other than that, there is nothing to see here and also not so many good places to stay, you can simply skip it.. I always wanted to visit this city as it was on my bucket list and there is so much to see here that you really really fell in love with the culture, the buildings, the people and the food of this place. We took the tour package where the guide took us to all the main spots and apart from it, we were able to enjoy so much at the markets of the city and shopped so much stuff.

This city is so beautiful and has so many ancient buildings that to witness its real beauty, you need to go for a free walking tour which covers all the iconic places and its history is told by the guide. You can check out the cute little cafes along the way and enjoy the street food. Little tip - wear comfortable shoes.

The cafe is a little place situated in the middle of the buzzing market of the city and is a cute little place with a really warm ambience and very nice and friendly people and staff. The food was great and had a lot of amazing local flavors. It was totally worth the visit and we really enjoyed the food and hospitality.

It is one of the most famous sites and a must visit as it is simply amazing. Me and my family had a wonderful time here and the views were simply stunning. Loved it and definitely recommend it to others.. It is the most beautiful building I witnessed which is architecturally detailed. The building structure was royal and the building exhibits a regal vibe to it. Visiting this place was an amazing experience and the place is truly a stunning place.

We had a great tour of this place thanks to our amazing guide and friend. He made sure that we know everything about the place and even went above and beyond with showing off things, being hospitable and having a great interaction with.

This is an immensely historic place which is enormously significant in the times of past. The visit to this place fills you up with a lot of emotions and little remorse for a while but is worth a visit because of its magnificent views.

We went to this amazing place and loved the view and the scenery. The place was really crowded as it is one of the most famous tourist attractions but you need to look out for pickpockets here because apparently a lot can happen here if you don’t pay much attention.

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.

This is an excellent restaurant which is the new opening in the town and also the talk of the town. The delicacies prepared here are awesome and delicious. The chefs have all come from outside and serve the best of gourmet food. It was exotic and tasty array of food and I highly recommend this place to everyone. Just awesome!!
