The monastery is magnificent! Wonderfully well maintained, but what audio guide are you talking about? There is no audio guide! And paying for something that doesn't exist is very annoying!

The ticketing experience was great, very easy. The Monastery is beautiful, worth the visit! However, the queues are always very long, and you cannot buy a ticket for a timeslot, just for a day - therefore I would recommend to be there at least half an hour before the opening time, or even an hour. It is also worth to check, that the church besides it is open - so you can visit them both after each other, but you need a separate ticket for the church.

The queuing! 1:30. There's no good reason to have a timeline on the ticket. It's amazing of course but that point was disappointed for our program for that day.

Architecture and history but wish there was a better entry system. Even with tickets you wait over an hour in hot sun to get in. And then have to queue agan also outside for the church.

We loved our visit to the monastery. The ticketing process through Headout was easy. And, when we had a glitch with sharing the audioguide, the number to call worked perfectly. The person on the phone got the audioguide to connect to both our phones.
