The front entrance has an impressive array of gold ornaments.
And the ground floor brims with the personal belongings of the last 2 kings of Myanmar. Take some time to follow the turbulent history of these people. Myanmar has been occupied by the British the Japanese and have been an oppresed for generations.

They have survived and are trying to peice their lives and economy back together. They have a rich heritage and have learnt to make the best of the appauling circumstances they have found themselves in.
