๐ก Tips for Visitors
The gardens are closed on Mondays and Fridays, so plan your visit accordingly. Entry is completely free, but you'll receive a token at the entrance gate that must be returned when you exit. English signage and maps are available at the entrance, and the gardens are most enjoyable during weekday mornings when crowds are thinner.
