We enjoyed our visit to site 3 very mich. First we stopped for lunch at a small restaurant at what I assume is the car park for site 3. It was a lovely walk through the rice paddies to get to site 3 but it was very pleasant and scenic.
There are not as many jars to look at but t made a very pleasant way to spend the afternoon. I could imagine in mid summer it would be very hot. We saw very few tourists.

There are 3 sites to visit and are all quite interesting in their own way. To be honest there are only so many jars you can look at. Site 1 has most of the jars approx 250 while site 2 covers the biggest area but only has approx 90 jars.
Our guide was very knowlegable and we enjoyed the day but it was quite intense.
