In photoshop try using the transform tool to straighten the building. It looks like it's leaning inward toward the top of the building.

The wide angle lens is great for getting the whole building unfortuantely they have a tendency to make buildings lean. #2435396

Remember, too, that photography is subjective! I don't think I'd straighten the palace here to take away for your perspective, as this is a unique way of presenting it, considering that most shots of it are head on, or if taken from a slight sideview it will always appear straightened! Don't be afraid to experiment and find your own niche and technique and take the offered suggestions accordingly!! We all have our individual tastes! Keep shooting!!
Much Aloha,
