If you're into art, be sure to check out the temporary exhibitions. I almost skipped them, but they turned out to be a highlight of my visit. Maybe set aside an extra hour just for this!

Don't forget your camera! The views of Lake Como from Villa Olmo are breathtaking, especially at sunset. I kinda wished I'd come later in the day for those golden hour shots.

Plan your visit during weekdays if you can. I went on a Saturday and it was super packed. I think a Thursday is perfect to explore without feeling rushed.

Definitely check the opening hours before you go. I was surprised to find they close earlier on Mondays. I suggest going around 1 PM to avoid the big morning crowds, especially on weekends.

If you want to save some money, see if you can combine your ticket with another local attraction, like the Villa Olmo. It makes for a better deal!

i suggest visiting on a weekday if you can. it’s way less crowded, and you can take your time exploring without feeling rushed.

My advice is to grab a coffee at the café nearby before or after your visit. It’s a great spot to relax and enjoy the view of the lake.

Check if there are any special exhibitions before you go. I stumbled upon a temporary exhibit that was super interesting and totally worth it!

Bring a lightweight scarf to cover your shoulders when entering. It’s a respectful touch and can save you from borrowing one or missing out on exploring.

I suggest visiting early around 9 AM if you want to avoid crowds and have some peace while exploring the stunning architecture... It was way more enjoyable for me without the midday rush

If you're keen on saving some cash, check if they have any special discounts on weekdays. I got a nice deal on a Tuesday!

Don’t miss the video presentation in the main room it really made the whole history of silk come alive. I almost skipped it thinking it would be dull!
