Par contre, il y a énormément de monde, et les vigiles ne sont pas forcément sympathiques ...
La galerie marchande à l'extérieur du temple est très sympa, on y mange bien et on trouve des souvenirs à bon prix.
Un peu kitch et finalement peu respectueux des traditions mais à voir comme curiosité locale
