    Crowded and you take your life in your hands when driving - the locals career up the hill the wrong way in what is allegedly a one-way system.  more »

    You pass by the statue on the way down from the temple. It had just been painted so looks amazing. You can walk round it or just admire it from a small platform.  more »
