I suggest bringing your own snacks and water. The local shops can be pricey and limited, so packing a picnic lets you enjoy the scenery even more

I recommend starting your hike early—aim for 7 AM. This way, you can avoid the larger crowds and enjoy the sunrise over the lake. The views are absolutely breathtaking!

I suggest bringing cash in small bills. Some local spots along the way only accept cash for food and drinks, so it's good to be prepared.

Bring snacks and water. The hike can be more demanding than it looks, and there aren't many places to buy refreshments once you're there.

Take your time exploring the site. There are so many hidden gems in the architecture. I regret rushing through and not capturing better photos!

I highly recommend bringing your own snacks and water. The food at the base camp is pricey and I was shocked by how much they charged! Save your cash and enjoy your own stuff while soaking in the views

Don't forget to pack a portable charger for your phone. There’s not a lot of power sources around and you’ll want to take plenty of photos. I ran out of battery just as I got to the best spots.

If you're not used to high altitudes, take your time. I suggest walking slowly and drinking plenty of water to avoid altitude sickness. Trust me, it helps.
