The Golden Dragon throne was very ornate and sat in the middle of the Hall of Supreme Harmony with a view directly out into the courtyard.  

As you can see the inside of the buildings were very dark, even during the middle of the day. There were many other doors that could be opened, but often they had to use candle light during the day time as well.
