Editorial Policy

Firsthand information

We identify firsthand information only when it is based on an actual visit. We do not invent visits, meals, stays or personal experiences.

Official information

We check visitor conditions and other factual information against appropriate official sources. These conditions can change; readers should confirm arrangements before traveling.

Personal observations

Crowd levels, atmosphere and practical impressions are observations, not live occupancy measurements or guarantees.

Unknown / unverified information

Unknown information is not guessed. Important uncertainties and conflicting sources are identified rather than silently resolved.

Corrections

When an error is confirmed, we correct the information and retain the underlying verification history. A public contact route will be provided when available.

Updates

A field verification date, visit date and complete article review date describe different things. We do not treat them as interchangeable.

Commercial relationships

If paid or affiliate relationships are introduced, they will be disclosed where relevant. Such relationships must not change factual assessments.

AI use

AI may assist with drafting, formatting and organizing research. AI does not create fictional personal experiences. Human review occurs before publication.
