Visiting Suggestions

  • It is recommended to allocate 1–2 hours, following the day's pace along the route; there is no need to make a special trip solely for this site.
  • During peak season, the best experience is in the early morning opening hours; some attractions require real-name reservations through official channels, so check in advance before departure.
  • There are usually other nearby attractions in the same city, which can be combined with neighboring spots on the same route for a half-day outing.
