Waooohhhh... This is my first of being a palace... Not just anyhow palace, Ooni of Ife's palace... I went as a beauty queen... The place is wonderful. Check out some pictures

The surrounding and environment is so rough and unkempt. The palace fence is extremely high and inaccessible to people living around. Zero power supply. Its terrible!! I feel bad for the residents around there

It's more of a marketplace than a Palace.. its a great place to buy all kinds of pharmaceutical products and medical devices

Good place

Its a peaceful place, security okay... Major dialer there is Yoruba... The palace is massive.

It was a busy business nerve centre area of Lagos State. It thickly populated where they are selling drugs Laboratory and hospital equipments. Also banks, food items, flowers and provisions. Always crowded.

This palace is a place to visit for someone interested in history and a journey back to pure colonial era. It is a reminder of traditions, culture and traditional institutions. Loom beyond the minimal comfort that may exist and embrace its symbolic representation of celebration of life and human heritage. The current Oba of Lagos, His Highness Oba Rilwan Akiolu, has served in the position since May 2003.

It's great except parking on the streetz and difficult to turn and still have to pay parking lot.

The palace is big enough for the accommodation of many people

Nice place that holds cultural significance

Very busy , but you can get a lot of things around even though you will walk a lot and people will hit you a lot

I was hoping it will have more traditional arts or some past Oba

That's cool though a lot to say but it feels like it's not necessary

I didn't have the chance to stop there. It's a nice place with beautiful terrain.

An atmosphere of Natural Air, an ambient of Peace. Seren environment of Comfort

beautiful fusion of the old order and the new order. the bobagunwa and masquerades with culture kept intact

The oba of lagos palace, was big enough but, the inner was dirty, but I heard that after the #ENDSARS# that makes the place like, the swimming pool turn to green, and so on

All this place is a very nice place to visit

Is a palace restricted to non White caps chief and the king need to reduce is ego and strictness to allow love and happiness in the palace

It is near to market where they sell medicines and hospital equipments. So always very roudy

Not so bad 😞😞😞😔😔😔 but I don't like the area

Oba of Lagos Place very secure place. No easy entrance, series of protocol to follow before one can enter.

Beautiful edifice and a monumental structure

The palace of Oba of Lagos, Iga Idunganran is a beautiful community of young and old both men and women, mostly indigene of Lagos by birth.

A Family Church. A church that preaches undiluted word of God.

Palace undergoing renovation, but the staff were courteous and polite in welcoming visitors.

I always imagine how well this compound can be improved, especially the outward appearance. It is not helped by its location right in the middle of an illegal medicines market. A pity!

Quite a historic place. The people are calm and the area is quite safe.

If you really want to visit, don't go empty handed

Calm no trouble things around are normal people going on their business and their day to day activities

Amazing place Delicious food and and good workers

Ancestry and cultural area, interesting place to visit despite been busy because of the market around it

The Oba of Lagos, also known as the Eleko of Eko, is the traditional ruler (Oba) of Lagos. Oba Rilwan Akiolu of Lagos in 2006. The Oba is a ceremonial. Ado was the first king of Lagos; he was the son of Asipa who was appointed to govern the land by the Oba of Benin. He had successors through all three of his.

The visitation was worth it. We got enlightened and understood somethings about the history of Nigeria, lagos and lots more.

It's the palace of Oba Roliwan Aremu Osuolale Akiolu 1 and it's open to the public. The staffs are friendly their is tennis court and a swimming pool there plus there are several traditional ornament on site

Is very good to be in weekend with u family

Considering I last visited the area about 15yrs ago. There has been some transformation and face lifts.

Oba of Lagos palace is a traditional stool formerly under the British authorities. It was founded by Oba of Benin after attempt to push back riverine people and fishermen from Egun tribe of Dahomey and Ijaw and patches of Yoruba to establish a link to the waters for export-import trade. Till today Yoruba remain royal to the Oba of Lagos unlike other tribes that are royal to their respective traditional stools. Oba of Lagos remain largely fascist and uses force to regain administrative control of Lagos lost during the British rule. Incidenly British governor handed over to the Igbo tribe at independence. That attamot to control Lagos both administratively and culturally often bread inter-tribal conflict between the yoruba and igbo during general elections in Nigeria leading to voter suppression intimidation and killings. Cultural events are often designed to intimidate non yoruba - though a few are landmark events in Lagos. Market levies and government subventions help to sustain the financial resources of the Native stool. Palace design is connunual not palacial.

Parking challenge but sorted by the environment area personnel

Parking was not as fearful as thought. Met a friendly agbero , had a nice experience being there. Things have really changed compared to what or how it was in those days .

It was a cool and peaceful place to live

A very nice market place An active commercial centre

Well, wasn't at the palace, just the street. Check gallery for photo and video

This palace was located in major business Area and always tight to go through.

If you can't your way around this area, you'd suffer for it. Google map would only help like 90% here.

I love this app

Great

Renovation works taking place after the attack by hoodlums during the endsars protest.

Nothing much

Street leading to the palace is too rowdy and few parking space

Well secured and neat

My first song. Looking for producer.

Excellent

Nice

Excellent

Don't really love the environment

Your medical equipments.

Currently under renovation

A good place to visit

A contemporary and modern palace

They have a billiard table within reception area nice environment and also neat

It was easy to locate but the road leading there is bad.

This is meant to be the abode of the Oba of Lagos. (king of Lagos Island), it is a very busy area as the roads can barely fit two cars and also a commercial capital. The Oba's staff of power was stolen from his Palace not too long ago which makes one wonder who the new king is and where does he reside?

Well,busy as usual,if ur going shopping better to take pub transport..

Iga idungaran ile aiye a very good house of all Lagosian

The Palace of the Lagos monarch is beautiful.

Nice

This is the Official Office as well as the Oficial Residence of the King of Lagos. There is no free access to people into this location, its strictly for purposeful visit. Not a tourist destination

The Oba was very hospitable.

It looks so modern now. For Urban geographers, this is a modern CBD area, I can tell you.

Peaceful

Historical landmark in Lagos.

Beautiful palace

For a party

The place is congested and the roads are terrible!!! There are not enough ATMs where buyers can freely transact.

Easy traffic flow

Culture filled

This is the ancestral home of the highly respected Oba of Lagos. The palace is located at the heart of Lagos island. All the roads leading to the palace is usually very busy in the morning and evening time given that the palace is located very close to the popular idumota market. The palace is not open to tourists so if you are considering paying a visit, it’s a no no.. Also note there is no parking around the palace area hence you may consider taking an Uber or a bolt ride to the area so you don’t bother where to park your car.

Not a friendly place like when late Oba Oyekan (of blessed memory) was king.

Usually overcrowded but what do you expect, its a market

I dunno not how the place he's for now

It's my childhood area

A typical kings palace

Mad place too be lack of security
