Review & FAQ:

Part European mansion and part pagoda, Chin Tsong Palace is an ornate villa that was constructed by Lim Chin Tsong, a Burmese merchant who made a fortune off his family’s rice business. The architectural masterpiece took two years to build and was finally completed in 1919, but Tsong did not get to enjoy it for long as he passed away in 1924. The palace spent many years housing various businesses such as the Burma Broadcasting Station and as the Kanbawza Yeiktha Hotel before it was turned into a cultural center. Visitors today will be able to see several aspects such as the grand staircases, towering columns, pagoda-like towers, and murals of the Great Wall.
