Further into the park as I was heading to the Royal Palace was the Porcelain Museum. This had an entry fee of 400Y ($5). The entrance area begins with two giant size vase taller than a person that must be considerable weight to carry The first gallery had a collection of ceramic plates. This led to a more stunning second room which was a hall of mirrors. There were many giant vases and ceramics on shelves and alcoves upto the ceiling. This was reflected on the m...

The final place I wanted to visit at Huis Ten Bosch was the Dutch Royal Palace. This was built with special permission from Queen Beatrice as an exact replica of one of the Royal Palaces. I was expecting to be quite impressed but it ended up being somewhat of a disappointment To get to the palace you have to cross the entire theme park and get to the far end. There was then a separate entrance ticket to enter. The website said 500Y ($6.25). When I got there I co...

A striking feature of the Huis Ten Bosch theme park is the Domtoron. This is a replica of the famous church tower in Utrecht which was the tallest building in that region for a considerable time.

Some of the settings were in a regal style to com...

The Huis Ten Bosch Dutch theme park had several museums I wanted to visit. As I didnt have the combo all access ticket for $72 I had to pay admission for each one. The Teddy Bear Museum was 200Y ($2.50). It was small and not as creative as the ones we have in Korea. A nice exhibit was grandmothers sewing teddy bears to show how teddy bears are born. Otherwise it was just a collection of teddy bears. They didnt really stage scenes as they do in the Korean teddy b...
