The 'Paradise' fresco in the Great Council Hall on the second floor and the Venetian school paintings throughout the rooms are highlights not to be missed. It's recommended to buy tickets in advance to avoid queues and use the Chinese audio guide for a more engaging visit.⏳ 📍Bridge of Sighs Built in 1603, the Bridge of Sighs is said to have earned its name from a condemned prisoner who sighed deeply upon seeing his lover with a new flame.
