Check first
- The official library guide lists free access and 10:30–22:00 hours. Library/mall browsing and aquarium tickets are separate.
- Follow the indoor floor directory. The map compares places; it does not verify a sheltered station exit or step-free lift route.
If the plan does not fit
If queues, cost or aquarium last entry do not fit, keep the library-and-meal version. Do not assume the library stores luggage; ask your hotel or a storage operator.
