Many visitors appreciate the peaceful atmosphere and the opportunity to learn about traditional crafts. However, some find the religious undertones of the community that runs the site to be somewhat prominent. The craft demonstrations are generally well-received, though a few visitors mention that the experience can feel a bit staged at times.
