Entry into the Palais des Papes was very smooth, just showed the ticket QR code for the staff to scan and walked right in thereafter.
A must visit, can imagine it must have been very grand!
There’s so much to discover at the Palais des Papes, and I learned a great deal about the city’s history. However, be prepared for numerous staircases throughout the visit.
