Mindanaoan In Korea Travel Series: Changdeokgung Palace
by Mindanaoan Irene
Changdeokgung Palace, a 600-year old UNESCO World Heritage Site, was the very first palace we visited in Seoul, South Korea. Changdeokgung Palace is one of the “Five Grand Palaces” built by the Joseon Dynasty kings. Located at Jongno-gu district, this is a beautiful palace complex to roam around in and take photos of.
We picked a good day to visit this Seoul palace. It was Chuseok Festival, Seoul’s biggest festival, and entrance fees to all palaces were waived.
This is the Injeongjeon (Main Hall)
These seemingly stone markers were placed so that officials knew where to stand.
The premises are very well-kept and well-maintained, as you can see in the photos. I can already imagine how pretty this area would be during fall or winter. I can’t wait to visit again!
A “secret garden” (Huwon) is actually located behind the Changdeokgung Palace. Since we still had a full day ahead of us, we decided to skip it. If you’ve visited Huwon, please let me know in the comments section below how it went 🙂
