Really cool to do!
It was a great experience to visit the 3 temples, especially because there was almost nobody so we had the sites for ourselves. The rain also added a beautiful charm to the whole experience, it wouldn't have been the same without it. Arisa was very patient and took a lot of photos of us. Thank you for the great memories!
