Mildly interesting due to original teak pillars on site with some information panels. Why one has to take shoes off at a reproduced throne area is beyond me. It is neither a religious nor royal environment.

Built in 1556, the palace was much bigger than this originally but had burnt down and was reconstructed as a place for tourism. Like most iconic buildings in Myanmar, most of the interior are in gold. It's a shame that I did not get to see the real arrangement of how the palace was like though, as the palace now is more like a museum that what it had been like in the past.
The throne room was the only thing that remains, if I am not mistaken, and it was the closest that I could get to being a king myself. Like the other pagodas in Bago, you must have paid the foreign tourist fee before entering this place.response / report this review -

The palace has been rebuilt entirely. The only original objects that remain are the wooden pillars and the foundations built with bricks. It's a nice place to spend some time with a big park surrounding the area. Go there if you want to escape the hectic city.

Impressive building but it's not worth visit for high fees especially for the foreigners.

Or the Royal audience hall. This is rebuilt of the old palace which got fired. It's beautiful indeed. From here you can see the bumble bee throne hall, not too far away. And from Bumble bee throne you can see Shwe Maw Daw Pagoda too.
