I recommend getting there right when it opens at 9 AM. It can get super crowded, and you really don’t want to rush through all the exhibits because they're so impactful

I think you should take your time in the main exhibition area. I rushed it a bit, and I missed some of the more emotional stories. Trust me, each section is worth absorbing.

Try to bring cash! I found that the ticket prices are slightly cheaper if you pay in cash rather than card, plus you won't have to deal with possible card issues
