Reviews
I was disappointed with the outcome after booking what was in the literary. The day before my trip, I was informed by the assigned tour agency that the Hanging Temple was closed for maintenance till end of Apr 2026. I was offered to go to Yingxian Wooden Pagoda instead. Initially, I was told that there should be a slight refund then was informed to pay an extra 230 RMB (yuan) on top of what I've already paid, which, I dod in cash. Hanging Temple was in my bucklist for the whole purpose for this travel. I hope that Klook will look into such matters for sites that are undergoing maintenance for any particular periods before they put up literaries for any sights for travellers to visit so as not to cause any last minute disappointment like I did. Other than this, Klook had done a great job. I'm still wondering if the extra that I paid was actually necessary and do hope that Klook will take an interest to look into my review. Cheers.
