Final thoughts
One day is enough to get a first impression of a place, but there is no need to fit every attraction into your schedule. Choose a main highlight, leave time for a meal and keep some flexibility for unexpected discoveries. Your next step is to check the location and current visiting arrangements of your chosen attraction.
