I think exploring the outer grounds first is a smart move. It's less crowded and gives you a great vibe before hitting the main attractions.

My advice is to take some time to chat with the local vendors outside. They have great stories and you might find a cool souvenir at a better price than inside!

I recommend getting there right when it opens at 8:30 AM. The crowds are way less, and you can take stunning pics without hoards of people in the background.

Check out the Royal Chapel but be careful about the strict dress code. I saw so many visitors getting turned away for inappropriate clothing!

Plan on spending about 2-3 hours at least. I thought I'd be in and out quickly, but there's so much to see, I lost track of time and could have missed out!

Try to get there right when it opens at 8:30 AM. I went later, and it was super crowded! You’ll have a chance to snap some amazing pics without a bunch of people in them.

Don’t forget sunscreen if it’s a sunny day. I was burned up after just an hour of wandering around. I’d suggest left the sunscreen in your bag for easy access.

I think it's smart to bring water and some snacks. There aren't a ton of places to buy food nearby, and the heat can be intense, especially in the afternoon.

You might want to keep an eye on the time. There's a lot to see, so set a limit for how long you're willing to spend there, or you could end up rushed at the last minute.

I suggest checking the weather ahead of time. My visit was cut short by rain, but had I checked, I could have planned better. Sunscreen is also a must, even on cloudy days.

If you can, do a mini photoshoot at the bridge leading to the temple. I got some of my fave photos there, and it's less crowded than inside the temple itself.
