Changdeokgung Palace & Secret Garden (Seoul)

#mytraveldiary Changdeokgung Palace was graceful and serene, but it was the Secret Garden that completely captured my heart. Tucked away from the palace’s grand halls, the garden felt like a hidden paradise. Lotus ponds, pavilions, and stone bridges blended seamlessly with the natural landscape. Walking through in autumn, the fiery colors of the leaves reflected in the water made everything magical. The garden was designed to feel natural, yet every detail carried intention and beauty. It was easy to imagine the royals finding peace here centuries ago. Changdeokgung’s harmony with nature made it unforgettable. #mytraveldiary
