Where you'll be
From Passprt Community
- Arrive early in the evening - crowds build up fast after 7 PM, especially on weekends.
- Bring some cash; not every stall accepts cards, and you’ll find great deals at smaller kiosks.
- Don’t miss the cultural shows - they happen at set times and are easy to miss while shopping.
- Wear comfortable shoes; the place is massive and you’ll be walking for hours.
- Try the food stalls from different country pavilions - portions are generous, so share if you want to sample more.
- Avoid visiting on Friday nights if you dislike heavy crowds; weekday visits are far more relaxed.
- Keep some buffer time for parking and entry - queues at the gate can take 20 - 30 minutes during peak season.
