He said there are certain rules that have to be adhered to for those visiting the palace. Based on the rules visitors are not allowed to wear jeans, flip-flops and carry food bags.
"We wish to teach people about rules applied in the palace so that they know about the rules that are also implemented by palace officials," he said.

Around 60,000 people visited the palace last year, he said. (H-YH/O001)
