My advice is to pack snacks or a light lunch. The food inside is decent, but a bit pricey, and you might get hungry after all the swimming!

If you can, visit on a weekday morning. I went on a Saturday and it was super crowded. You'll get better photos and enjoy the greenery without all the noise.

I recommend bringing a good pair of walking shoes. The path can be uneven in some areas, and trust me, you want to be comfy while walking around!

If you're planning a picnic, grab some snacks from a nearby grocery store instead of overpriced cafes. I found a nice spot near the benches by the Wisla River. Perfect view and way cheaper!

watch out for cyclists! they zoom through the park and i nearly got run over. stay alert or stick to the grassier paths if you're walking with kids.

My advice is to bring a light snack or picnic. There are plenty of benches, and it’s a great way to relax and people-watch without spending too much.

I recommend checking out the playground if you have kids with you. They had a blast and it gave me a moment to just sit and enjoy.

If you love coffee, check out the little café inside the park. I found their prices surprisingly cheap for Krakow, and the view is lovely!

I suggest visiting early in the morning around 8 am for a peaceful stroll. The park is less crowded at that time and you can enjoy the tranquility and the fresh air.

Wear comfortable shoes! The garden is larger than it looks, and you’ll want to stroll the paths without worrying about your feet.

If you're on a budget, check out the garden on a weekday—sometimes they have reduced entry fees. It’s a nice way to save a little cash!

Start your visit around 10 AM to avoid the larger crowds; the garden's peaceful charm really shines in the morning light... Trust me, it's much more enjoyable

I recommend downloading a plant identification app before your visit—it makes the experience more interactive and fun to learn about what you see.

I think the best time to visit is around 10 AM. It's less crowded then, and you can take your time exploring and snapping pics without a ton of people around.

I recommend taking a look at the souvenir shops nearby, they have cool dragon-themed trinkets that aren’t expensive. I found a cute keychain for just a few zlotys!

I suggest you check the weather before going! It can get slippery around the entrance if it rained the day before. Got my shoes mudy and it was no fun.
