- G2KpaulyMelbourne, Australia3,599 contributionsI wondered down here on my first night and it was sooooo busy on a Saturday night.

- Belinda Low4 contributionsIn December 2024, I watched this performance twice! I was still impressed during my second time. I was happy to introduce my family to watch it and they loved it. I highly commend the organisers for making this show as it is educational, cultural and motivational. The effects are not something you would have seen before in the region. Venue is clean and staffs are friendly.
Only 1 point which I think can be improved: the section of the show relating to the six mothers is abit far fetched and sounded like a joke in the end. The story was touching but the end was disappointing. Hope the director can make more captivating stories.

- sally6001oundle28 contributionsThis is billed as a river walk but really there is little to see of interest. Once you are beside the river either walk into the town or use one of the trikes to peddle you around . Cheap enough for a 45min tour they will wait for you at each place of interest. I would recommend as it was so hot and exhausting and they know where to go instead of working with a map if you have limited time .Written March 9, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Zsuzsa.GuideTargu Secuiesc, Romania964 contributionsThis house built at the waterfront has an estimated price of 700.000 dollar, but it's more than that.
