Important Information

Last admission is typically 1 hour before closing; staff begin clearing terraces 15 minutes before close.

Early mornings or late afternoons for softer light and fewer crowds; sunset is spectacular from the terrace.

Book ahead — popular slots and weekends fill quickly.

State museums often offer free entry on the first Sunday of the month — expect more visitors.
