βQasr Al Watan is truly impressive, grand, perfectly symmetrical, and surprisingly peaceful. The architecture is exceptionally detailed, with a strong sense of balance and proportion that makes the space feel calm despite its scale. We visited the banquet halls, library, and Gift Room. The Gift Room was my personal highlight, a fascinating collection of diplomatic gifts from countries around the world, each reflecting cultural exchange and international relations. The gardens are beautifully maintained and offer a quiet contrast to the palace interiors. Photos speak for itself! Highly recommended if you appreciate design, craftsmanship, and meaningful spaces.β
