Creator's Key Takeaways
i would highly recommend getting an e-ticket before you even come here because the lines can be long at times
the stones are very polished from all the foot traffic making it actually very slick so try to make sure you bring shoes with traction
out of all the places i went to go walk around and hang out for the day i would say that plucka probably stood out to me as my favorite place to hang out
i personally recommend at least checking out placa for sure
