พระราชวังเคียงบกกุง

Gyeongbokgung Palace, dating back to 1395, is Koreas most magnificent royal palace and an essential stop on any Seoul itinerary. The grand Gwanghwamun Gate, the majestic Geunjeongjeon throne hall, and the serene Gyeonghoeru Pavilion floating on its lake create an unforgettable journey through 600 years of Korean royal history. Rent a hanbok (traditional Korean dress) from the many shops nearby to receive free palace admission and create stunning photos against the palatial backdrop. The changing of the guard ceremony at the main gate runs multiple times daily and is free to watch.
