نصائح من الداخل
- Wear respectful clothing covering shoulders and knees to enter the palace, as the dress code is strictly enforced.
- Photograph the intricate murals in the Silver Pagoda early in the morning when light is soft and less glare occurs.
- Skip the late afternoon when tour buses arrive packing crowds into the main plazas.
- Purchase tickets from the official booth outside to avoid overpriced vendors inside.
