Prince Kung’s Palace Museum opens at 8:30 a.m. every day. The ticket checking stops at 4:10 p.m., and the museum closes at 5:00 p.m. It is closed on Mondays, except for public holidays.

The ticket price is 40 yuan per person. You need to book tickets in advance before your visit. The earliest time to book is 10 days before your visit, with the earliest booking time being 8:00 p.m. on the 10th day before your visit.
