Is dit iets voor jullie?

Voor wie het is

Families with children aged 6 to 14 will enjoy this easy, free walk through old Pettah, where kids become Junior Time Keepers hunting six pieces of hidden evidence. In a little over an hour and just 0.8 km, they solve puzzles at the Khan Clock Tower, a temple, the Jami Ul-Alfar Mosque and Kayman's Gate. Adults after an in-depth history tour, or families with toddlers, should look elsewhere.
