Wear comfortable shoes! The museum has some stairs and uneven flooring, and you’ll want to be able to walk around without any pain.

Allocate at least two hours for your visit. I rushed through because I thought it was smaller, but I missed so many fascinating details.

If you're on a budget, consider getting the combined ticket for the museum and the nearby sites. I saved a lot by doing this!

Don’t miss the lower level with the incredible gold artifacts. It was definitely a highlight of my trip and not too many people go there right away.

I suggest starting your visit around 10 AM, just after opening, to avoid crowds. It makes it way easier to enjoy the exhibits without feeling rushed or jostled.

Grab a snack before you visit! The small café nearby was pricey for mediocre food... I think it’s better to eat before you go

If you can, visit on a weekday around 2 PM. The museum was practically empty then, and I had a much calmer experience exploring

Definitely check the opening hours before you go! I went on a Sunday and it was closed for some reason. What a bummer!

My advice is to bring some water and snacks, as there aren’t many shops around. I ended up thirsty and regretting not packing a little picnic.

I suggest visiting around 9 AM... The light is perfect for photos, and you’ll beat the crowds... Trust me, it gets busy later

I recommend wearing comfy shoes. The paths can be a bit uneven, and you’ll want to explore every corner without worrying about your feet.

Don’t miss the crypt below the church; it's fascinating! My advice is to keep an eye out for the small entrance—it’s easy to walk right past it.

I think it's worth exploring the surrounding area after your visit; there are cute cafes and shops nearby that give a nice local vibe.
