Top Culture in Germany

Try to visit on a weekday if you can. I went on a Saturday and it was super crowded, which made it tough to see everything. Weekdays are chill and you can really soak it all in.

If you're bringing kids, bring a snack or two. They have nice places to grab food, but the lines can be long. A little snack kept my energy up while we explored!

I suggest checking out the nighttime lights show they do... It's stunning! Just make sure you arrive early enough to get a good spot... I almost missed it!

Grab a combo ticket if you're planning to check out other attractions nearby. I saved a good chunk of change this way, plus it made things easier just showing one ticket.

If you happen to visit on a Sunday, keep in mind that it’s less crowded but some nearby attractions might be closed, so plan accordingly.

I suggest visiting in the late afternoon, around 4 PM. The light is beautiful for photos, and fewer tourists are around, so you can really soak in the atmosphere.

Don’t forget to wear comfy shoes! The paths can be long and uneven, and I ended up wishing I had chosen better footwear

If you're on a budget, skip the audio guide. I found plenty of info online and through the pamphlet they give. My advice is to save those euros for a nice bratwurst instead!

Bring a good camera or your phone charged. The intricate details on the outside and inside are just stunning. You won’t want to miss capturing those, trust me.

Check out the rooftop view! I missed it, but everyone raves about it. I think it's worth the extra few euros and the climb.
