Very
beautiful
building
and
its
museum
is
very
interesting.
The
rooms
are
all
magnificent
and
full
of
history.
On
the
other
hand,
we
arrived
at
the
museum
at
4pm
(attention
last
slot
to
take
your
tickets!).
Knowing
that
the
museum
was
closing
at
5pm,
we
knew
that
we
would
not
have
time
to
visit
in
details
because
the
initial
visit
of
the
whole
museum
is
planned
for
2-3
hours.
The
person
at
the
counter
asked
us
if
we
were
sure
we
wanted
to
visit
the
museum
knowing
this
constraint.
We
agreed
but
without
the
audio
guides
which
would
not
make
sense
for
a
1
hour
visit.
Once
we
start
our
visit,
it’s
a
bad
joke
:
the
1st
rooms
are
in
a
quasi
complete
darkness,
no
more
light
nor
interactive
board,
everything
is
already
turned
off
whereas
it
is
only
4
pm
and
the
museum
closes
at
5
pm!
Then
we
see
a
sign
"short
visit"
only
accessible,
the
"long
visit"
having
just
been
closed
under
our
eyes
(whereas
we
paid
a
full
price
ticket!).
Fortunately
a
nice
lady
sees
us
and
authorizes
us
exceptionally
to
pass
by
the
small
door
to
continue
the
"long
visit".
(Thanks!)
But
then,
a
man
in
charge
of
security
rushes
us
by
showing
us
his
watch
and
saying
"time
time,
faster
faster".
We
don't
even
have
time
to
read
the
signs
briefly
summarizing
the
rooms.
It
is
then
that
after
only
40
minutes
of
visit
and
being
in
a
hurry
that
we
arrive
at
the
end
of
the
visit
and
realize
that
we
could
have
taken
much
more
time
in
each
room!
To
sum
up,
why
were
we
not
given
all
this
information
at
the
beginning
at
the
ticket
office?
Non-transparent
communication
and
quite
disappointing
from
such
a
cultural
monument.
So
if
you
want
to
have
a
good
experience
don’t
come
at
4
pm
but
way
earlier
in
the
day.
