  Pretty good. The museum was interesting, especially the paintings on the walls were impressive. Swing the gifts from other countries also makes you feel like you’re living part of the past when you explore them. Also the garage with a few models of king’s historical cars, given to him by the US government, was a nice touch and I enjoyed it quite a bit. The temple is also nice, but you’d find better ones in other places.

  Busy, but not too busy. Nice grounds to walk around. Didn’t go into the Palace as told I needed to leave my shoulder bag in the locker room. So had a stroll around the gardens and the small car museum. Which was interesting. Plenty of seating outside to sit and relax.. great for people watching ?

  Ok to see, but no pictures allowed inside for whatever reason. It would surely get more crowded and messy inside if everyone started taking pictures of themselves. Don’t understand why you have to cover up since it’s just a museum and not a holy place, but ok, was prepared for it thanks to the other reviews. Arrived around 9am and there were loads of Chinese tourists that must have just arrived. Once I got passed the big groups it was less crowded. Nothing spectacular to see, but still nice if you have the time.

  Very very strict rules before you can enter the area for visiting. The most annoyed thing here is that locker area is inside ballet room but the area to allow you to have ability to go visit Palace is far from locker. You must go back and forth.

  It’s a nice place and you can walk around a big area and see different buildings. A lot of people were there but it didn’t hinder our walk through. What I disliked was the rework of a lot of buildings.
