My advice is to wear comfy shoes. You’ll be doing a lot of walking, and some areas have uneven surfaces.

If you want a stunning view, climb to the top of the fortress before sunset. The colors over the city are incredible!

I suggest downloading a map of the museum beforehand. It helped me a lot since the layout can be a bit confusing. Don’t waste time wandering aimlessly!

i recommend checking out the museum's free entrance days, which can save you a few bucks. i went on a sunday and it was packed but worth it.

If you're into photography, take time to explore the outside of the museum too. The architecture is just as unique as the art inside!

I recommend getting there right when the museum opens at 10 AM. It gets crowded later, and you can enjoy the exhibits without feeling rushed. Plus, you'll have a better chance to interact with the staff who are super helpful.

Don't skip the gift shop! I found some really unique souvenirs that weren't just the usual touristy stuff and at reasonable prices.

Try to avoid weekends if you can; the lines can get long and it's super busy. If you must go then, I say show up right when it opens at 10 AM!
