I think it's better to visit late afternoon, around 3 PM... The crowds were much lighter, so I could take my time without feeling rushed

My advice is to check the schedule for any special exhibitions or events before you go. I stumbled upon a cool display that was only there briefly!

i recommend getting the audio guide; it really adds depth to the exhibits and is worth the small extra fee. made my visit so much more informative!

My advice is to bring a packed lunch. The food options in the cafe can be a bit pricey and you can save some cash by munching on your own snacks while the kids play

My advice is to bring a snack or two. The café there is kinda pricey and the seating is limited. I ended up eating at a convenience store nearby instead, which was way better.
