What an experience! - I spent a good time with my travel buddies at this place. Just that we were a bit unlucky with the weather. It was raining quite heavy and the temperature dropped to 16°C. We could not see the peaks clearly from the hills. But we had great food and good chats with our nice tour guide. Will definitely come back here again when the time is right.
