The place was great, ambience was amazing and the food was delicious and it brought back a lot of memories of your childhood days since the concept of the place was to make customers nostalgic about the comfort food everyone used to have. It was simply incredible.

It is one of the best museum experiences I had. The museum is centrally located in the city and can be assessed by normal public transport. The museum had a huge collection and was displayed in a very orderly manner. It took us some hours to explore the whole museum but it was a brilliant experience.

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.

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.

If you have the time, give this place a chance. It is absolutely free and you could find many interesting things to do here. There are few shops available as well where you could shop at cheap rates.
