  • Gives an insight into the way of life before the discovery of oil changed the landscape and fortune. Well maintained. Entry is free. A series of small buildings within the courtyard.

  • Such a beautiful, serene place to visit. There were lots of great spots for photoshoot. Went here to do quick snaps of my daughter in her National Day outfit. Photos turned out great. πŸ’― Parking & entrance are free. The best time to go is during the golden hours because the sunset view is awemazing!!!! 😍
  • It’s such a beautiful place where there is so much of a history. People who like to history this is a must visit place. Structure and garden is maintained so nicely. There is no entry fee. It would take approximately 30 to 45 minutes to see
