    Awesome. I came here when I was young and it wasn't this well-executed way back then. Now it's very cool and neat to see people in authentic costume at their respectable crafts. We got so lost wandering around the old homes and buildings that we missed all the shows!!!! However I do recommended coming on weekends. A lot of attractions were closed or limited because of the lack of visitors during the week.

    Pricy, but a nice destination for a day out, definitely with kids. The park includes cultural/historical aspects as well as exciting rides/attractions. Furthermore, there's nice food to taste and guests are treated with impressive shows (from archery from the back of a horse to folk dances and tightrope walking)
