The process of obtaining the ticket and entering the monument were really easy and the tour operator really friendly.However,I would recommend to the future travellers to avoid national holidays for visiting this monument as it gets really,really crowded.There are only 2 small windows that allow you to take a glimpse of the interior and everyone is pushing and tramping,kicking and doing whatever rude thing you can imagine in order to get a chance to take a picture.
Disappointed. The e-tickets were not accepted so we had to pay twice.

Disappointed. The QR code sent was not accepted by the entrance staff or ticket office so we had to pay for the tickets again.

The tickets we bought from Viator were not accepted at the entrance of the Temple of Heaven. We had to buy new tickets on the spot. I contacted Viator but i received no reply. Very bad service.
