How to use this plan

Use this route as a flexible introduction rather than a fixed tour. Confirm museum access before departure and adapt the order to weather and opening hours.

Transport: Central heritage stops are relatively close, but the botanical garden and mall are easier by car or taxi. Travel times are estimates.
