Sunrise viewpoints accessible by tuk-tuk or very short walk?
I want good sunrise photos without long pre-dawn hikes. Any accessible spots?

Many viewpoints and high points have road access or very short paths. Tuk-tuk drivers know local sunrise spots and can take you there before dawn for a small fee. Some guesthouses or hotels have rooftop or garden views that work well. East-facing beaches and certain reservoir areas are naturally accessible. The key is scouting or asking locally the day before. Many beautiful sunrise compositions don't require difficult access — just being in the right place at the right time with an interesting foreground.
Some of the best sunrise spots are actually very close to where people stay — just a short walk or quick tuk-tuk ride.
Will ask my guesthouse for the nearest good sunrise spot with easy access.
