Indrukwekkende locatie. Helaas was de mevrouw bij de ticketverkoop erg onvriendelijk. Daarnaast kosten het beste wat geld voor wat je krijgt er waren weinig bordjes aanwezig met informatie over de plek en moesten veel dingen zelf opzoeken op het internet. wilde je wel een tour of audioguide moest je extra betalen. Wij hadden zelf verwacht voor dat geld wat we al hadden betaald we op z'n minst wel iets zouden krijgen qua informatie.

Bella,particolare e toccante
