The palace was fantastic! It was a shame the armoury was temporarily shut but the main rooms and exterior were fantastic! It didn’t feel too busy and prepurchased tickets meant I got in super quick!

Is raining outside and we didn't realize that there was line for people with tickets and one for those buying tickets. We finally found our way in and enjoyed seeing the palace. We had Chinese group that we were trying to stay ahead of.
