Esta ciudad esta padrisima, estoy impresionada!!! (Ty ya habia estado aqui, por eso a el no le cayo de sopeton, pero igual de contento que yo, eso si). Es una combinacion de lo nuevo y lo viejo, edificios altisimos, centros comerciales super modernos, gente super a la moda, pero al mismo tiempo tienen sus palacios, templos y monasterios en perfectas condiciones. Bellisimos!   El calor esta fuertecito, pero terminanos el dia felices por las maravillas a la vista.
