Pre-purchasing this ticket was a real time-saver as I was able to skip the long queue onsite and progress to immediately entering the Castle with a quick scan of the QR code. The Castle itself was quite interesting, filled with 7 floors of exhibits and timeline history of how it was built and evolved. There are also two souvenir stores (one on the 8th Floor, the other on the Ground Floor) - I'd recommend to check out the Ground floor shop as it has more souvenirs to offer and you're able to pay by card. A worthwhile visit, including a beautiful surrounding of the gardens and a magnificent view of the Castle at night.
