Before You Go

  • Request updated accessibility map if available.
  • Mixed surfaces: smooth stone, occasional uneven transitions, garden gravel pockets.

Route Strategy

Cluster high-interest zones early: central patios + principal halls → shift to gardens when energy dips.

Surface Reference

Surface Stability Note
Polished Stone High Potential slip if damp
Aged Tile Medium Mind minor elevation differences
Garden Path (Gravel) Variable Choose firmer edge lines

Rest Points

  • Shaded galleries (benches or low walls).
  • Near reflective baths (cooler microclimate).
  • Garden axial nodes with seating opportunities.

Bottom Line

Route-first mindset + planned rests converts complexity into a manageable, meaningful exploration.
