Hareto’s Take

The Hareto Score of 86 is a provisional editorial score based on listing information, not a firsthand inspection. Treat the tracing and copying as religious practices as well as creative activities. Ask about seating, clothing and photography etiquette in advance. Plan the journey to Katsuragi carefully and allow the visit its full time.
