From the official guides

As you enter, strike the statue at the Palace door. When you do, either a Red Magic Jar or an Ironknuckle will appear. If it's the enemy, quickly run off the screen and return to try again. A very handy tool, the Glove, lies in this Palace. To reach it, Link must dodge falling rocks, which form walls behind him. With the Glove, Link can easily break down certain stone walls to continue his journey towards the helmet-headed Palace guardian.

Nintendo Player's Guide: NES Game Atlas (Nintendo of America, 1991), p. 66

Stab statues and the like with your sword and a red magic jar may appear. There are two of them here. Use them well!

It is much longer than the Parapa palace, and the enemies are far stronger too.
