Few tips for the first timers

• Elderly tourists and sick people need to think
  twice or take necessary precautions while going
  on this tour as it may be tedious and tiring.
• Carry your own bottled water, necessary shades
  like caps, sun glasses and gloves, small torch,
  light snacks and emergency medicines. Travel
  light.
• One should be properly clothed according to the
  season and wear shoes with proper grip to avoid
  slipping or falling.
• Avoid running, walking fast or leaning on any
  wall as the structure is quite primitive and can
  be weak enough to break loose in any parts.
• Do not walk too close to the edge of the wall and
  follow all the warning signs posted on the way.
• When you are in a group it is necessary to stay
  together and maintain your safety and well being
  all the time.
