Things to know before booking your ... tickets

Booking window

Tickets are available online only and may sell out quickly during peak days. Book at least two weeks in advance when crowds are expected to reduce waiting time for validation.

What’s included

Your ticket grants timed access to the attraction’s full exhibition areas. Online purchase lets you skip the on‑site purchase line, ensuring a smoother entry and reducing delays at security checkpoints.

Entrances & flow

Entry is through a clearly marked main entrance where staff scan your ticket and guide you along a pre‐defined route. Expect brief security checks and moderate queues during busy periods.

Ways to explore

The experience is self‑paced with clearly signed navigation that minimizes routing confusion—even when language differences may be noticeable. Use the provided digital guide available via your ticket for extra clarity.

Policies & rules

Standard rules apply: no food or drinks, and non‑flash photography is recommended. Follow on‑site instructions for security and late arrivals, as entry after the designated time is subject to staff discretion.
