This is a picture that clearly shows the difference between the presence and absence of an iPhone flash. The left side was taken with the flash on, and not the right side. Well, I think the left side was definitely more similar to the real thing! Don't automatically color-correct the iPhone picture. On this day, there were tourists wearing hanbok. I was worried that it would be cold, but the hanbok I saw at the palace looked more beautiful on a day like this. I think it's more like that. This place where you can see the plum trees is near the entrance of the sponsorship. I heard that the sponsorship trail is so good. I couldn't go in because I didn't have time. It's around 5:10, so there's a broadcast that closes at 30 minutes. I should visit earlier next time. In 2024, I wish to visit this beautiful place again. #2024wish

#koreatrip This is THE most beautiful place I have ever seen. The garden is a separate ticket than Changdeokgung and is only available via guided tour, which is offered in many languages. It is my favorite place I visited in Seoul. The guide was very knowledgeable and light-hearted, and kept an enormous group moving on schedule. He made sure to recommend other places to see in Seoul and places to get lunch afterwards.

Wow! I have never heard of this place. It's almost better than the grand palace. Great palace in Seoul. A real pleasant visit. Beautiful buildings. Less crowded. I would definitely recommend here. It also has a secret garden and another royal residence next door. So three places to visit. This might be the best palace in Seoul. You have to go to the Secret Garden inside to fully experience the palace. #เมืองนอกทิพย์

#fallingseason There were a lot of people on Deoksugung Stonewall-gil, maybe because of a market event or originally, but the upper part of Jeongdong-gil was much more. It was good to walk quietly and take pictures whenever office workers avoid lunch time because it's a weekday. Ewha Girls' High School, which has a beautiful red brick building, has a pretty name, and the building suits Jeongdong-gil well, right? The 100th anniversary hall is extraordinary from the entrance. And it's a ginkgo tree, and it's showing off a huge scale.

📝Korean Travelogue part8: Traditional Korean Song and Dance📝 🖼️🖼️🖼️🖼️ The last part of the night tour of Changdeokgung Palace, the traditional Korean performance at Myeongjeongjeon Hall, where each person received a traditional drink and a souvenir upon entry, super thoughtful. 📷📷📷📷 The entire show consisted of 5 programs, each of short duration. From the lion mask dance to the long sword dance, from pansori singing to the peacock feather fan dance, plus a segment of the king's love story in shadow puppetry form. It allows visitors to dabble in Korean culture before losing interest and attention. All the music was performed live, which, combined with the ambiance of the Secret Garden, felt amazing👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Visited on September 14, 2019

Changdeokgung, Changgyeonggung, Jongmyo Three ancient buildings that were originally connected have been divided into two parts by a road that was constructed during the occupation period. Changdeokgung is second only to Gyeongbokgung in size, and for over two hundred years when Gyeongbokgung was destroyed, it served as the royal palace. It is now also a great spot for photography, with fewer people and scenery that is no less impressive. Changgyeonggung has a lot of greenery, and it's very pleasant to take a stroll there.

📝Korea Travelogue part7: Night Tour of Changdeokgung Palace📝 🌑🌑🌑🌑 The night tour of Changdeokgung Palace was the part of my trip to Korea that I was most looking forward to, and it certainly did not disappoint. It became the highlight of my trip to Korea and left me with a unique and irreplaceable travel experience. The night tour of Changdeokgung Palace is only open during the more suitable weather months of April to June and August to October, with only 100 spots available each day. For foreign tourists, the tour is only available on Sunday nights at 8 PM, so tickets usually need to be booked well in advance. 🖼️🖼️🖼️🖼️ If Changdeokgung Palace is a modern attraction by day, then at night, it truly feels like an ancient Korean royal palace. Upon arrival at the gate, you'll find a group of guards in traditional attire guarding the palace doors. Carrying lanterns through the gate, you wander along various paths not open during the day, encountering the king and queen admiring the moon by the lotus pond, court musicians playing the daegeum on a high platform, and palace maids playing the guzheng in a pavilion... The atmosphere is truly immersive. 🎞️🎞️🎞️🎞️ The entire journey starts at the Donhwamun Gate from the era of Gwanghaegun (the 15th king of Joseon), then crosses the Geumcheon Bridge built during the reign of Taejong (the 3rd king of Joseon), passes through the Injeonmun and Injeongmun to the main hall Injeongjeon. Then, exiting from the Injeongjeon's side through the Seonjeongmun, past the Heejeongdang, entering through the Changgyeongmun to the Yaksajeon from the era of Heonjong (the 24th king of Joseon). After passing the upper pavilion, you enter the Secret Garden to visit the Buyongji Pond and Juhapnu Pavilion. Then, you pass the Bulromun Gate built by Hyomyeong Seja for his father, King Sunjo (the 23rd king of Joseon). Next, you visit the Aeryeonjeong Pavilion and watch a traditional Korean performance at Yeonkyeongdang, finally returning to Donhwamun Gate through the forest path of the Secret Garden. Not a minute is wasted. The tour took place on September 14, 2019
