This article is small, and of poor quality. I request a re-write and expansion of this article to bring it up to par. It needs to have more information added, with more readibility and images. --58.186.113.231 12:41, 6 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The Official website linked from External links appears as blank white rectangle on a red background when viewed in both Firefox and Opera browsers. The most recent Internet Archive copy of the page here also renders as white on red. This 2005 version has some readable text but the welcome link leads to the same "white on red". I tried other versions, alll to no avail. Is there a better, more reader-accessible link? -84user (talk) 20:38, 16 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Could someone fill in what has happened after the palace was renamed. the pictures suggest that it has since become a museum —Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.212.225.1 (talk) 17:58, 21 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
