This place is absolutely beautiful to live in or visit. However, it would be greatly appreciated if people could refrain from littering. It's becoming quite exhausting to constantly pick up trash that is either thrown out of cars or left behind by visitors. This place is truly a gem, and we can all contribute to its preservation by taking our own rubbish home instead of dumping it here. Let's ensure that everyone can continue to enjoy this wonderful treasure.
