The tour guide was very efficient. Although the time spent at each attraction was short, it was really cold, and we couldn't stay outside for too long. After taking some photos and walking around for a bit, we really wanted to get back on the bus. Every spot was beautiful.
The Fairy Terrace would be even better at night; the tour guide was very friendly!
