Customer Reviews
The Gate of Heaven is gorgeous for pictures. The views are stunning and the atmosphere is serene. That said, the wait times are very long; we had to wait two hours before being brought to the top, and then spent an additional 1.5 hours at the top. Also, you must have your arms and legs covered, but no worries if you don’t—they provide sarongs to wrap you. While the scenery makes it worth it, plan for a lot of waiting if you visit.
Read the reviews—most of them are at least a little right. I didn’t actually plan to come here. A friend with a scooter wanted to go, and we had nothing better to do, so we ended up at The Gate of Heaven. I was genuinely surprised, mostly because I didn’t know much about the place beyond seeing it listed as a stop on day tours. I assumed it would be just another tourist trap—and to some extent, it is. But the experience really can be whatever you make of it. From the reviews, it seems most people wake up at the crack of dawn, drive for hours, then wait in line for hours more just to get the famous photo—and that’s if they get a good one, given the limited time and shots allowed. I don’t think many people actually experience the place when it’s peaceful. Instead, they’re surrounded by crowds of anxious, frustrated tourists slowly realizing that much of the experience feels like a money grab. That said, as I mentioned earlier, I came here by accident—and had an incredible experience. First, we were the last people allowed up for the day, so there was no pressure to wake up early or rush. By the time we arrived, almost no one was there. We were able to walk around freely, take our time with photos (without strangers in them), sit quietly, take in the views, and actually feel the energy of the place—reflecting on its history in peace and silence. We barely waited for the famous photo, got great shots, then wandered around a bit more before heading back down. Maybe it was the lack of pressure. Maybe the lack of planning. I’m not an influencer, so if my photo had turned out terrible, I would’ve posted it anyway and laughed at myself. Luckily, my photo turned out pretty bomb digity if you ask me. Go for the temple but stay for the photo, then hit up Virgin Beach if you go early enough and then at least that way you’re not driving so far for only one thing.
It was worth seeing the temple of you like looking at temples - but they do not lie when they say the line is long! It would have been three hours in the rain. We took a walk into the jungle above the complex - beautiful walk through the fog…I enjoyed my time there but wow was it a long queue. Didn’t get the photo.
