Brought my kids here on a sunny afternoon. Good place for some culture and education. Try to go on a weekday afternoon where there are not heaps of tourists. Praying inside the temple is available but will need to borrow a skirt. The structures and artwork of the aboriginals were beautiful. We spent a good 2 hours there. Affordable tickets as well.

Too many people. A smaller size than I expected. I don't know if it was a holiday or because it was Sunday, but there were a lot of locals who came to perform ancestral rites, and the sightseeing was unique and fun.

Great historical site and worth visiting.I walked from the Novotel at 6am and arrived around 6.30am which is the best time to visit. I was the only person there apart from the staff who were working.You can wonder around for an hour or so and there are tables and chairs to sit under the trees to enjoy the view.The entrance fee was minimal, 20,000vnd. There is information about the history of the site in the museum.A wonderful site to visit, there are also many cafes around for a cool drink before the walk back.Highly recommended for everyoneThere are steps however nothing onerous or difficult.

I enjoyed the visiting of this beautiful Temple. Amazing place to make great memories. There was also a little show with traditional dances and music, very lovely. If you like you get there also coconut to drink, if you never try before in fresh, I recommend to you it’s so delicious.

Great view with a small entrance fee. There was lots of tourists but they were well behaved at my visit there was ice creams for sale and also views spanning out for miles. However the best part was the traditional dance which happens multiple times daily.
