The best time to visit is spring and autumn to avoid summer crowds and heat. Pack comfortable walking shoes and modest clothing for religious sites. Respect dress codes requiring covered shoulders and knees. Security checks are standard, so arrive early for popular attractions. Use euros for payments; credit cards are widely accepted. Stay aware of pickpockets in crowded areas.
