The visit to the Grand Mosque truly stood out, with its stunning architecture and serene atmosphere providing a perfect backdrop for reflection. While the Heritage Village offered interesting insights, we found the time there a bit rushed, which made it hard to fully absorb the local culture.

Exploring the Grand Mosque was a breathtaking highlight for me; the intricate designs and sheer scale left me in awe. However, I found the time spent at the Heritage Village a bit rushed, which made it hard to fully appreciate its charm.

We had a delightful time exploring the city’s highlights, especially the impressive architecture of the grand mosque, which left us in awe. The heritage village was a charming glimpse into the past, and our guide did a great job sharing stories that kept the kids engaged. One minor downside was that the transportation felt a bit rushed at times, but overall, it was a memorable experience for our family.
