Seoul is known for its unique aspects.
It is that the capital of Korea has two sides of a coin:
the head is the mordern and the tail the old.
Elegant line of tile roofs of traditional houses and palaces gives Han-Y pride of being a people
with a great cultural legacy.
Now Han-Y will take you 5 palaces in Seoul.
The most famous old house for the royalty is Kyongbokkung Palace nearby KwangHwa Mun.
The best way to go the palace is to take on
the third subway line and to take off at the Kyongbokkung Palacestation.
By the way, two bus stops away from Kyongbokkung Palace, you can easily find another palace, Ch'angdokkung Palace & Piwon (Secret Garden). To get on a bus would make you confused, then take a walk. It only talks 10 minutes. Just come along the Ch'angdokkung Palace & Piwon (Secret Garden)'s walls-you could find out where it is with easy. Stop! You must know that Ch'angdokkung Palace & Piwon (Secret Garden) opens and closes with its seasonal schedule, so before going there when it
becomes dark, first check out its opening and closing time to any information center around you. About a decade ago, Ch'angdokkung Palace & Piwon(Secret Garden) had another name of Ch'anggyonggung Park which was known as a park and playing ground.
Now on every weekend, it attracts people who want to have a good time outdoors. Ch'anggyonggung Palace is linked with Chongmyo Royal Shrine. At the back of Ch'anggyonggung Palace, you can pass through a door toward Chongmyo Royal Shrine.
The last place.Toksugung Palace. It is around the city hall.
Quite convinient for you to use subway or bus.
But you are on JongRo or KwangHwa Mun, have a stroll for about less than twenty minutes.
Wow, I might have been lounging on the center of Seoul for a long time.
No, it is not a good idea!
So we would better turn our direction to museums scattering around the country. One thing you should not miss.
Let's enjoy each region's mood and distinctiveness on our way to museums.
