I suggest visiting the fountain early in the morning, around 8 AM, to avoid crowds and grab some amazing photos without people in the background. It's much more peaceful then.

I found that visiting in late spring or early fall was ideal; the weather was pleasant and less humid, making it more enjoyable to walk around.

If you're planning to take pictures, I recommend checking the fountain's schedule online for the best times when it’s lit up or during the water shows. They are stunning!
