Check out the cannons and tunnels. They’re super interesting, but I didn’t realize they were there until after I missed them!

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!

If you can, grab a student discount ticket, it's a smart way to save some cash... Just remember to bring your ID, they did check mine!

I recommend checking out the little café inside for a quick break. The coffee was surprisingly good, and it's nice to recharge before going back to exploring!

Be prepared for some sections to be crowded, especially the main exhibits. I'd say go in the afternoon, around 3 PM, when it seemed less busy.

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 suggest wearing comfortable shoes! You’ll be doing a lot of walking, and the place is bigger than it looks from the outside.

I found the signs a bit confusing, so I recommend downloading their app before your visit. It helped me navigate and learn more about the exhibits.

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.

My advice is to keep an eye out for the rotating exhibitions. When I visited, there was a fascinating showcase that you wouldn't want to miss!

After your visit, grab a bite at nearby cafes. Some of them offer discounts to museum visitors, and it's a nice way to relax and discuss the art!

You can save on admission fees because the museum is free! Just double-check the days it might be closed or have special events

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!
