Log Text: Situated along a road with street parking. It was fenced off and the gate was closed when I visited, probably an unfinished project. Earthworks that looks to be original and ancient is visible. Educational facilities and reconstructions in the site were clearly visible. Hope the work there will be done well, finished in due time and open to visitors become a nice educational site

Log Text: At the outskirt of the village. Can be driven to from a short unpaved road into the village from the main paved road that goes through the village. The site is fenced but the gate was not locked, although the gate was rusty and a little bit difficult to open. There was a little bit of flooding at the site when I visited.

Log Text: It is along an unpaved road, but most vehicles would not be able to access. Drive until the vehicle cannot go further and walk the rest of the way. A quite interesting site with multiple standing stones, not exactly circular arrangement

Log Text: A UNESCO Heritage site with perfect accessibility. A very complex site. I marvel at the skill of the archaeologists that excavated this site, it must have been a very difficult task. The illustrations did its best to help people understand the site but it is still rather difficult to comprehend due to its complexity. A museum is adjacent to the site.

Log Text: Nicely managed with clear signposts and footpaths, but a rather large site so a bit of walking is required to cover the whole site
