Skip the stuffy guided furniture tour unless you’re really into antique velvet chairs. The actual move is paying the entry fee just for the French-style gardens and those massive cypress trees. It’s the perfect place to dodge Medellín’s aggressive traffic for an hour or two. Hit the grounds during golden hour when the light hits the stone spires. Bring your own snacks and claim a spot by the fountains; the museum’s café is basic at best.
