Exquisite Rooftop View

Dining at the rooftop bar was a highlight of my trip. The view of the city skyline during sunset was amazing! The drink selection was impressive, and I enjoyed relaxing with a cocktail while admiring the scenery. It's an experience I would recommend to anyone visiting. The ambiance was perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring.
