Excellent write-up. This is why this forum is the best resource out there.

Not sure I agree about that area. I found the outskirts to be better value.

Hmm, I had a different experience. Prices were higher when I went. Maybe timing matters.

I'd rate it similarly. Solid 9/10 destination.

Interesting take but I think you overpaid. Try using a different site next time.

With respect, my experience was more mixed. But maybe I went at the wrong time.

I'd also recommend downloading Maps.me before you go. Essential.

Good info. I'd add that going during the week is much better — less crowded, better prices.

This is outdated info IMO. Things have changed since the pandemic. Current prices are actually lower than what's described here.
