We did not join the tour nor did we pay extra 5000 won to go into the Secret Garden as time did not permit us to do so.
In my personal opinion, the royal palace in China is much more beautiful and impressive but overall this was a decent experience. My suggestion to you is to pick the palace that you want to visit the most and just go to one instead of all 4.
