I recommend taking a break in the museum's lush garden; I found it peaceful and a great place to recharge.

I suggest getting there right when it opens at 9 AM to beat the crowds; it made a huge difference for me.

If you can, bring a water bottle and some snacks – the café there is kinda pricey and crowded.

Don't skip the gift shop; they have unique souvenirs! I found some quality stuff that was more affordable than at other places.

My advice is to grab a snack from one of the food vendors around the square. They have some amazing local treats, and they're way cheaper than dining at a restaurant nearby

If you can, plan your visit during the weekdays. I went on a Saturday and it was super packed, making it hard to appreciate the architecture. Weekdays are generally more peaceful.

Look out for street performers while you're there. They can really add to the experience, but be sure to keep some small change on hand if you want to show your appreciation.

If you can, bring a light jacket! It can get breezy in the morning and chilly in the evening. I wasn’t prepared and regretted it!

I recommend checking out the art galleries on site – totally worth the time! I spent an hour there and it was surprisingly enriching and not crowded at all

I think it’s best to visit on weekdays if possible. You’ll have a more peaceful experience, and it makes a huge difference when taking photos without too many people in the background.

My advice is to wear comfy shoes. You’ll be walking a lot! The grounds are huge, and you’ll want to enjoy every corner without your feet hurting.

Don’t miss the rooftop terrace! The views of the city from there are amazing and a great spot for photos. I almost forgot about it until I was leaving!

I really enjoyed the free admission, but I think booking a time slot online would be a good idea. It can get busy, and reserving a spot ensures you won’t have to wait forever.

I suggest coming on a weekday if you can. The weekend crowds can be insane, and you'll enjoy the art more when it's not so packed. Plus, it's easier to take pictures without a million people in the background.
