Tranquility inside, bedlam outside 

2/5 - Disappointing

Verified traveller

The queue on Friday was at least 2 hours- but you only find out after buying the entry ticket so a waste of money

4/5 - Good

Verified traveller

Be ready for a very long queue once you are inside to see the main tombs.

1/5 - Terrible

Verified traveller

so small ! English directions and landmarks to highlight the place would have been nice. Not everyone wants to take a guide round.

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveller

Go early - it was a long queue for a small, but worthwhile visit.

4/5 - Good

Verified traveller

A very beautiful spot, but we had to queue a lot as there were a lot of tour parties. We were told that later in the afternoon is likely to be quieter. Look out for the tortoises.
