I recommend checking out the local artisanal vendors. The handmade goods are unique and make perfect souvenirs without breaking the bank.

My advice is to explore the surrounding area after your visit – the Fairmount Park has some beautiful trails and views that are definitely worth your time.

Make sure to bring a camera or charge your phone – the view from the top of the steps is iconic, and you’ll want to capture that moment!

I suggest visiting early in the morning, around 8 AM, to avoid crowds and have the place almost to yourself for those perfect selfies with the art museum behind you

Be sure to check out the food options nearby, like the Franklin Square's SquareBurger, but My advice is to avoid peak lunch hours to skip the long lines.

My advice is to check out the free exhibits inside. They’re pretty cool, and you can learn some amazing stuff without spending a dime. Plus, it beats just wandering around!

I suggest hitting the Visitor Center around 9 AM. It gets busier later, and you’ll snag a good spot to grab tickets for tours without the crazy lines.

I think the best time to visit is around 10 AM when it's less crowded, plus the morning light makes for great photos. If you come too late, you might miss the quiet vibe that makes Washington Square special.

I recommend checking out local art and architecture books at nearby shops before your visit. They can provide cool context on what you're seeing, and it'll enhance the whole experience for you.
