Gyeongbokgung Palace

Gyeongbokgung Palace, once the majestic home of the Joseon dynasty, stands as a symbol of South Korea's rich history. Built in 1395 and nestled in northern Seoul, it boasts over 300 regal buildings, including the National Folk Museum and the National Palace Museum. Though marred by destruction in the early 20th century, ongoing restoration efforts are gradually returning the palace to its former glory.

Conveniently situated in central Seoul, Gyeongbokgung Palace is easily accessible by taxi or subway. Enter through one of its four grand gates, each offering a glimpse into the palace's storied past. For a truly awe-inspiring entrance, pass through the southern gate, Gwanghwamun, and immerse yourself in the palace's timeless splendour.
