Don’t forget to bring some water and snacks! There aren’t a lot of food options nearby, and you don’t wanna waste time looking for a place to eat

I recommend taking a local taxi to save money instead of the fancy tourist shuttles. They’re much cheaper, and you get to experience local life a bit more!

I recommend bringing some snacks or water. The on-site café has limited options, and it's nice to take a break while enjoying the beautiful view of the surroundings. I wish I had packed a few snacks during my visit!

I suggest visiting on a weekday, like Tuesday or Wednesday. It's less crowded, so you can really enjoy the exhibits without feeling rushed. I went on a Saturday, and it was packed.
