คุณ Puru Tiger ไปเที่ยวพระตำหนักนี้เมือเดือนมิถุนายน พ.ศ. ๒๕๕๔ เขียนบรรยายไว้ว่า
Our next place of visit in Ratnagiri was the almost forgotten, Thibaw Palace.
I say “almost forgotten” because the palace is extremely well kept. However there are very few visitors. And the entry fee is Rs. 7. Which is about 7 cents!!
If this was in any western country, then you can guarantee that it would be minting money like crazy. Such a beautiful piece of history, yet so few seem to know about it!
Even we stumbled upon it accidently when we stopped to ask locals about places to visit!
This picture tells the story about the palace.
Just for your interest, $1 = Rs 50
So this palace was build at the cost of approximately $2500!! :-)…in the year 1906
