  • Wear comfortable walking shoes as paths are uneven and some shaded areas offer limited seating.
  • Bring a hat and sunscreen because parts of the site are exposed to the sun.
  • Photograph interiors in shaded huts to avoid glare and capture fine details of preserved artifacts.
  • Visit on weekdays to avoid large tour groups and enjoy a peaceful experience.
