[2025 Seoul Attraction] Travel Guide for Sungkyunkwan University (Humanities & Social Sciences Campus) (Updated May)

Myeongnyundang, located inside Sungkyunkwan University in Seoul, is an autumn spot with a ginkgo tree that is about 500 years old. Myeongnyundang was a lecture hall where Sungkyunkwan students used to study. When I visited last year, it was early November, so I think it will be the most beautiful this year, probably from late October to early November. They said the tree was damaged by the heavy rain last year, but I didn't really feel much of a difference. When I visited last year, I went at 9 AM, which was the opening time, but there were already quite a few people. It seemed like they opened a little before the opening time. Therefore, I recommend visiting a little before the opening time this year as well. The photo zone where many people take pictures has a line, so the time of day doesn't matter. *22.11.05 (Sat) Visit 📍 Sungkyunkwan University Myeongnyundang : Myeongnyun 3-ga, Jongno-gu, Seoul 🏷️: Parking available #SeoulTravel #Myeongnyundang #GinkgoTree #SungkyunkwanUniversity

The most popular animation on Tooniverse, Jeoncheondang, has been released as a musical. You can enjoy Jeoncheondang at various photo zones before the show starts^^ . ℹ️ Performance tips ✔️The photo zone, snack shop, and application box are all available until 15 minutes before the show starts, so we recommend going early ✔️There is an event where you can take pictures with a cat-like doll, but the line is crazy ✔️After the show, they sell parking tickets on site, but you have to buy them in cash. It costs 3,000 won for 4 hours. ✔️For the 11 o'clock show on the weekend, it is crowded before and after the show, so if you go out the side door right next to it and walk a little, you will see restaurants in the boarding house area. After lunch, we recommend looking around the photo zone and goods shop. Anyway, the parking is 4 hours, so it is ample ✔️There is also a reading space in Jeoncheondang, so there are many things to do while waiting. However, it is extremely crowded. . #Winter travel #Musical #Performance good to watch with children

🌸Spring has come to Sungkyunkwan University🌸 Hello~ Travelers!̆̈ This is Shelby. I recently heard that the cherry blossoms were in full bloom on the campus of my university, so I visited the school for the first time in a long time!̆̈ I usually take classes online, so it was nice to go to school after a million years. Sungkyunkwan University's Humanities and Social Sciences Campus is famous for its Hyehwa-dong flower viewing. In particular, you must take a picture under the cherry blossom trees lined up on the uphill road from the Student Center to the basketball court. It's a must. Haha I brought a film camera and took some pictures with it~ I haven't developed it yet, but the flowers are so pretty that I'm sure it turned out well. In addition to the Student Center, check out the cherry blossoms around Geumjandi Square. There are many benches installed here and there, so it's perfect for taking a break while viewing the flowers. You can also heal by looking at the wide open Geumjandi. However, you must not enter Geumjandi! It's a special area where you can enter for #life shots during the graduation ceremony. Also, you know that you must wear a mask no matter how outdoor it is~ Sungkyunkwan campus turns yellow in the fall and pink in the spring! How about coming to see it with your friends? #flower viewing #flower viewing #cherry blossoms #spring #spring is here #Sungkyunkwan University #Sungkyunkwan #with friends #Seoul travel #city travel #life shot spot #life shot #city travel #outing #in the flower field #spring is here #cherry blossom viewing #with nature #Seoul travel #safe travel

💚Sungkyunkwan, where the past, present, and future coexist💚 We visited Sungkyunkwan University located in Hyehwa-dong! The current Sungkyunkwan University is named after the past Sungkyunkwan, the best higher education institution in the late Goryeo Dynasty and Joseon Dynasty. As a school that carries on the tradition, the first thing you see when you enter the main gate is Myeongnyundang, where Confucian scholars studied in the past. Thinking about how hard students in the past must have studied, I felt a sense of connection with the East..ㅜㅜ🥲🥲 Myeongnyundang is an annex building of Sungkyunkwan, located right behind Daeseongjeon. The opening hours during the winter are 9:00-17:30, so if you want to visit, be sure to remember the time. I made two wasted attempts and was able to enter on the third try. ㅎㅎ There are two large trees between Myeongnyundang and Daeseongjeon. 🌳 Both trees are ginkgo trees, and they even have names. They are called 'Munmyo'. Those trees even have titles granted by the king. ㅋㅋㅋ The Confucian Shrine itself is a shrine dedicated to Confucius, so it is said that there is a Confucian Shrine in almost every place where people study Confucianism! 🍂🍁🍂🍁 If you go up through Daeseongjeon and Myeongnyundang, you can see the current appearance of Sungkyunkwan University. The first place you will see is the International Hall. The International Hall is most famous for its cats. Aren't the cats in the International Hall so cute? 🐱 If you come at night, be sure to visit the rooftop of the Law School. It is currently closed due to COVID-19, but if you go up to the rooftop of the Law School with a can of beer, the night view is really beautiful~ 🎆 I visited Sungkyunkwan University once because I missed my normal school life. I especially recommend it in the fall👍 #Sungkyunkwan #WinterTravel #GourmetExploration #SafeTravel #Christmas #YearEndTravel #WinterFood #WalkingInWinter #OnSnowyDays

Seoul's campuses transform into picturesque havens during spring, adorned with cherry blossoms. Here are some campuses worth visiting: • Seoul National University: As Korea's top academic institution, the campus boasts stunning cherry blossoms intertwined with historic architecture and vibrant students, creating a captivating scene. The campus art museum, located to the left of the main gate, occasionally hosts special exhibitions that are free and open to the public without reservations. • Korea University Seoul Campus: While the Humanities Campus has fewer cherry trees, the Science Campus nearby is the main spot for cherry blossoms. At night, you can enjoy "night cherry blossoms" along the Anam commercial street, accompanied by a variety of delicious food options. • Sungkyunkwan University Seoul Campus: The Humanities Campus is another great place to admire cherry blossoms. The campus is filled with blooming cherry trees, where students gather to take photos, radiating youthful energy. Before heading out, it’s recommended to check the weather forecast and blooming period in advance. Wear light jackets and comfortable shoes, and remember to protect the environment.

#Seoul Itinerary Day 1: The Confucian Heritage of Sungkyunkwan Walking into Sungkyunkwan University is like traveling back to the Joseon Dynasty. This Confucian temple has a history of more than 600 years and is the highest center of education and Confucianism in South Korea. On campus, the ancient wooden buildings are intertwined with the modern academic atmosphere, which is particularly fascinating. I strolled along the central axis of the campus, passing through green courtyards and quiet study halls, and felt the profound influence of Confucian spirit. Standing in front of the Dacheng Hall, I recalled the scenes in history where countless students knelt down to worship Confucius, and my heart was filled with respect. In the afternoon, I visited the Sungkyunkwan Museum and learned about the development of Korean education and culture through the cultural relics in the collection. Day 2: Cultural Footprints in Seoul The next day, I chose Changdeokgung Palace and Jongmyo Shrine to continue my exploration of traditional culture. The secret garden of Changdeokgung Palace is picturesque, with lush ancient trees and a pond reflecting the palace walls, like a tranquil landscape painting. Afterwards, I went to Jongmyo Shrine, where tablets of successive Korean monarchs are enshrined. The solemn and dignified atmosphere was awe-inspiring. At night, I returned to Insadong, visited traditional bookstores and stationery stores, and picked up some calligraphy tools as souvenirs. During the two-day journey, I experienced the profound cultural heritage and scholarly atmosphere of Seoul in the fusion of ancient and modern times.

#JanuaryTravelSupportEvent #SungkyunkwanUniversity #2024WishEvent #FebruaryTravelSupportEvent #koreatrip This afternoon, I was bored so I took a walk around Sungkyunkwan University and felt the charm of the quiet campus and the surrounding streets. There were small cafes, bookstores, and restaurants where you can get a quick meal near the school, so it was a great environment for walking alone. In particular, the tree-lined walking path around the campus and the quiet atmosphere were impressive, and it was the perfect place to spend some leisurely time. 📌 Points for solo travelers Recommended activities: Walking along the trails around campus and appreciating the scenery blending in with nature Hidden spots: Small parks near the school → A place where you can sit on a bench and read a book or enjoy some leisure time Recommended snacks: Warm cappuccino and dessert sets sold at nearby cafes (6,500 won) 🚨 Notes There are a lot of students on campus, so it is recommended to walk quietly and enjoy the atmosphere Stores and cafes may have different operating hours, so check in advance It is more convenient to prepare simple snacks or drinks before walking The area around Sungkyunkwan University is a place where nature and quiet atmosphere blend together, so you can spend meaningful and peaceful time alone!! This area was so peaceful!!

Autumn in Sungkyunkwan is always beautiful. It was 30 years ago. It is the same autumn in Sungkyunkwan now. Today, the sky is filled with clouds, and the scent of autumn is strong. It is regrettable that autumn was so short this summer, as it was so hot to welcome such a beautiful autumn.

Sungkyunkwan University is another popular spot during the autumn foliage season, both for tourists and locals. The highlight here is the large ginkgo trees, which serve as a landmark for photo opportunities. It is not far from Hyehwa subway station and can be reached on foot. Although it gets crowded during peak season, the university is quite spacious, allowing visitors to find good spots for photos.

#JuneTravelSupportEvent This is Sungkyunkwan University in Seoul. Do you know the walking trail from the Law School to the Arts Building at Sungkyunkwan University? It was really nice because you could feel the natural environment. The slope wasn't that steep, and when the weather was good, you could see the Seoul scenery in detail. I highly recommend it.

The famous autumn ginkgo tree scenery is within reach by subway! The tree is very big and beautiful~~~ You can search Mingluntang on IG to see if the ginkgo has turned yellow. Light-colored clothes are recommended It is also recommended to wear a light-colored hat, which will look good! ! #Ginkgo #Sungkyunkwan #Myeonglundang #400-year-old Ginkgo #Seoul Travel

Red maple leaves, pink silvergrass and ginkgo trees are undoubtedly the shining pearls of Korean travel. Every city has countless enchanting natural scenery and quaint and elegant Korean houses that make people linger and be reluctant to leave. Today, I have the honor of introducing you to a great place to view ginkgo trees in Seoul—Myeongyeondang at Sungkyunkwan University. The trees here are probably more than 400 years old and were designated as Natural Monument No. 59 in 1962. The fan-shaped ginkgo leaves gradually turn from emerald green to golden yellow since the beginning of autumn. Whenever the wind blows, the falling leaves look like golden carpets. Visitors can stroll along the "Golden Avenue" and enjoy the beautiful scenery. Myeongryundang is a sacred place where Confucian scholars of the Joseon Dynasty studied Confucianism. The ginkgo trees around it are planted according to Confucian traditions. Every autumn, the golden ginkgo leaves and the quaint Korean houses complement each other, and the weight of history and the magnificence of nature blend perfectly here. Strolling beside this centuries-old auditorium and stepping on the golden ginkgo avenue, you can seem to hear the echoes of history, making you feel as if you have traveled back to the Joseon period and experienced the Korean style of that time. #Japanese and Korean urban hotels

The first time I came to Seoul in the thick of autumn, the streets were dyed with red maple and golden ginkgo everywhere, and any corner could take a blockbuster. I went to Sungkyunkwan University Myeongnyundang and Seoul Forest on November 2nd, and the autumn colors are gradually entering their prime. The best time to enjoy autumn is before mid-November, if you miss it, you have to wait another year! 🍁Sungkyunkwan University Myeongnyundang This historic university is one of the oldest in Korea. The new campus is built on the mountain, and you can overlook the whole view from the top. The path is full of red leaves.

Myeongnyundang is an ancient building, and the most famous in the campus are several hundred-year-old ginkgo trees, which are interesting with the old buildings. The unique atmosphere makes people feel the charm of traditional culture. 📷To avoid the crowd as much as possible, we arrived early in the morning. There are several popular photo spots in the front and back courtyards, and you often need to queue up. Try to combine yellow leaves 🍂 and buildings for shooting, and some tourists in Korean costumes are also suitable for the lens. Both telephoto and wide-angle lenses can be used, with different styles. 📍Myeongnyun 3-gil, Jongno-gu, Seoul Special City 🚇Subway Line 4 Huihwa Station 🕙Autumn opening hours 9:00-17:00 🍁Seoul Forest A large park in the center of Seoul, next to high-rise buildings.
