Many folks visit around dusk to take in both. Therefore, allow yourself at least two hours to watch the sun properly set and experience the night in all its splendor. Check it out; it's well worth the wait.In this varied network of paths, you can travel to several peaks. The ideal place to witness the sunset, thousands of people come to this peak every evening to take in the magnificent vista.
