No such thing as skip the line tickets at Presedential palace. Not much crowd at Lourve so don't get fast track tickets. Other than that palace and museum were amazing! It's a must visit!

This is my 2nd visit to Qasr Al Watan, which is a beautiful architectural marvel. The artistic work with contrasting but dazzling colors gives a great ambience to this beautiful place. The outer layout surrounded by gardens with different colours of flowers, water body and surronding buildings enhances the beauty of this place. The reflection of the setting sun on the nearby hotels and building creates splendid view which can be seen from the Qasar Al Watan gardens.

I am speechless, very interesting and very beautiful. If you bought your tickets online, you can skip the first line. I recommend that you do the palace first and then the mosque because it is freer.
