1. It’s recommended to exchange money only in banks that operate on weekdays from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm. The exchange rate in private offices may be less favorable, and the services of private individuals should be abandoned.

2. Opening hours of museums and other cultural institutions should be specified in advance, as they can vary depending on season. You can see exact timetables and purchase tickets for cultural events at the tourist office.

3. In the city there are restaurants of different categories. Here it’s common to have a dinner quite early. Thus, all of the local restaurants don’t serve dinner later than 6:00 pm.
