Review for: Palace banquet dinner (including ancient costume experience)
Decent local cuisines served in emperor banquet style. Fascinating lightings and beautiful dancing performances. the Location is quite secluded, which is at the Dongba valley, about 30 mins from the town but overall still worth a visit. Recommended! (non halal)
