The library - it is housed in its own one room building - one very big room

The Imperial Clothes
We weren't really allowed to take photos, so these were taken while trying to see if anyone was looking. As a result a few of them are on the blurry side.








Interesting looking trousers

The interior of the building (which was again a one room building) where the parliament met.
