Arrived on a chilly December morning to visit the complex. The painted ceilings, walls, and tapestries inside really do make the palace, as the outside and parts of the inside are otherwise pretty plain. One thing I wanted to mention, since I saw conflicting information in other reviews, is that on my visit today photography was almost entirely allowed. The only room that disallowed photography was the Pantheon of the Kings - otherwise, I snapped away in full view of the staff (including in spaces like the library) without so much as a shake of the head.
