6. Outstanding Craftsmanship in Every Detail
This video aims to emphasize the outstanding craftsmanship that went into each and every little detail of the building. The video shows the beautiful frescos, the carefully decorated windows and detailed woodworking that can be found within the building. The music is a really nice touch to the video, and it goes very well with the visuals. We are used to seeing the building from the outside, but through this video we are able to see just how incredibly phenomenal the building is from the inside as well.
7. Ever wondered how the Prime Minister’s study looks like?

8. A workday on the roof
