In this center, unlike other cities, your belongings will be stored in 2 bags, one of which is especially to leave your cell phone (off) and in the other all other things such as wallet, food, keys, etc. and later you can take them to a locker. If you have notes or notes, you will be asked to throw them away. Inside the place there is a cafeteria, so if you prefer not to take many things with you but want to have a snack in the break, you can consider this option.
