Edge is simply a must-see!!! Stunning views of the entire city, an absolutely incredible experience—I managed to take so many great photos. They closed off part of the outdoor deck, but that didn’t stop me from taking excellent photos. Vessel is also great for taking photos from high up with a view. And it’s quite different!

The highlight was the beautiful view from the lookout point—it was absolutely incredible and stunning. I don't regret going at all; I'd go again in a heartbeat. I highly recommend it.

It was amazing up there. Especially if you get there before sunset, you get to experience the golden hour, and then, once it gets dark, the whole sea of lights. We also had a drink up there at the bar. That made the whole experience even better. Even the ride up in the elevator was an adventure. Going 100 floors super fast without a single pause was awesome.

From the moment we arrived, we could feel the harmony among the employees as they welcomed us so kindly. It was an incredible experience riding the elevator up those 100 floors in such a short time and being up there and seeing all that wonderful scenery. Without a doubt, it was an unforgettable experience...!!!!!!!!
