★★★★★2 months agoWorth a visit, definitely. Even the all together entry fee of 25€ in the beginning felt a bit too high. But a lot to see and everwhere good explanation of the shown arts and history. BUT the parking g is way too expensive! There shall be a limited, in case of buying the biggest ticket.

★★★★★Edited 2 months agoI recommend. We visited just the gardens, it takes you about 4-5h, I recommend but if it's hot outside (like 30°c+) it's no longer enjoyabl. It was beautiful, the gardens are very big, we didn't manage to visit every garden, if you want a good walk, it's recomanded. Be careful, on Saturdays the last train(tour, 5€ adults) is at 12:30, and the next oan is at 3 pm. Also, I was absolutely eaten by mosquitoes, so I recommend spraying a anti-isect spray before going in the gardens. Also, the ice cream shop in the rose garden wasn't open.
