There is a discount when buying tickets, and you can enjoy all the original facilities. One day is not enough, so I will come again next time if I reserve a day.

Purchasing a package ticket on Klook in advance shortens the waiting time for the cable car on the left, and using QR to board the cable car and enter the attractions is very convenient and fast, and it is highly recommended.
