I stayed up late the previous night. I woke up a bit later than usual that day. I was clueless about going to Narayanhiti Durbar that day until I reached school. We had to study in our first period which was C. Maths. Then the second period was Opt. Maths. We were summoned on the ground so we went to the ground. Then we got on our bus and reached the Durbar in few minutes. Then we were told not to take out cell phones inside the Durbar. So, I kept it on the bag. Then Mr. Nirmal came with a bunch of tickets in his hands and started distributing to everyone. After a while, we got through security checking and were said not to make any kinds of unnecessary noise while we were inside. The first thing that I saw in the palace was the head of a bear which was a little frightening. Then I saw tigers in attacking position which was nice. Then I saw big pictures of the Kings of Nepal hung on the Wall. I was amazed by all the artworks that were on the wall. There were rooms for guests, Queen's makeup room and so on. Lots of animals were part of the decoration. We also saw King’s throne. And after finishing the visit inside the palace, we went outside the area of the palace. We saw the bullet marks on the wall. We also saw a pond which was under maintenance. Later, after finishing the visit we came out of the palace and took a group photo and we left for school.
