Verdict by age
Not a general rating. How each age band actually experiences it.
Great from six up, and three to five year olds do well here because they can move freely. With a baby it is manageable on the main route but there is little shade on the road in.
The site is large, so do not try to see it all. Walk the main street to the theatre and the square behind it, then turn back. That takes about two hours. The road from the ticket office as far as the museum is wheelchair accessible, which also makes it workable with a stroller. Beyond it the ground is rough. There is a cafe inside.
