THE PALACE OF THE CHILDREN AND PUPILS

The Palace of the Children and Pupils is a key monument for the regime, as its aim is to show how children are the kings of the country. Every day, thousands of children gather in the Palace, to practice any kind of art or sport. The visitors are welcome to watch the little genius and their performances. However, the place does not make very comfortable, as it is hard to guess if the children are really happy to be there and to do what they are told to do.
