Such a nice experience with the little ones. Didnt know where to park, rang them and they told us the best and closest parking spot where we could get. It didnt take a lot of time to finish the adventure but so worth it.

Long waiting times, but a great experience once you make it in. Deep Caves with lots of playfully designed movies and statues for kids. Great place for people of all age.

Fun experience. Interesting to see what shapes people will carve out in the soft rock. Some exhibits a bit dated, but all entertaining! Recommend checking the website for deals as you don't have to book a specific day. We went early, which gives you some nice quite time exploring. There was a large group ready to go down by 11.45am.
