I recommend bringing some snacks and water. While the food options are decent, they can get a bit pricey, and you'll want some energy while exploring.

Skip the souvenir shop unless you really want something special. I found the prices a bit steep and I didn't see much that caught my eye.

If you're on a budget, don't miss their discount days! I think I saved a good amount by going on a Wednesday. Just double-check the schedule before you go, so you don't miss out.

My advice is to plan at least 2-3 hours for your visit. There's so much to see, and I found myself rushing through some exhibits. It would've been better to take my time and really absorb the history with leisurely breaks in between.

I highly recommend visiting on a weekday if you can. The crowds on weekends can get a bit overwhelming, and you’ll have more space to enjoy the exhibits. Plus, it felt more peaceful walking through the museum without all the hustle.

I think it's worth checking if they have any temporary exhibitions. I stumbled upon one during my visit that was super interesting and added a bonus to my experience!

I recommend visiting on a weekday around 10 AM to avoid crowds. You can really enjoy the art without feeling rushed and get some nice quiet moments.

Check out the nearby park. It's a great spot to chill after exploring the museum. I thought it was a perfect way to unwind and catch a breath.
