  • I was amazed at the sheer volume of souvenir sellers at the tower, they were so in-your-face and their goods were'nt particularly out of this world either.

    At Least Do This: If you dont want what they are selling, be firm and say so....again and again....
    Alternative: If you go early, you might be able to avoid it
