I understand that they need to keep the crowd moving but the constant noise of whistles made it difficult to fully enjoy. Having said that, the lanterns were truly beautiful, the surroundings were breathtaking and I am very pleased I went.”

On s'y perd en deambulant tout en contemplant la beauté architecturale de ce monument historique. Nous y sommes allés pour 9h, il n'y avait pas trop de monde. Malgré les 36 degrés c'était supportable grâce à la végétation environnante.”
