Great destination! Enjoyed the open trail and peaceful outdoor atmosphere.

Unfortunately, this unique museum isn't really worth visiting without preparation and local knowledge. Orientation is difficult, and the audio guides only become clear after spending some time with the Nintendo devices. Signposted and better-described tour suggestions, tailored to your interests and the collection, would be helpful.

I was pleasantly surprised. I especially liked the Egyptian exhibit, which wasn't too crowded.
