Be sure to check out the time for the guard changing ceremony. You can exit gyeonbokgung station to reach this palace directly. It's a huge palace but the main hall and rooms are restricted to enter.
The main palace from the Joseon Dynasty. Aside from the breathtaking Korean/Chinese architecture, this is also home to the National Palace Museum and National Folk Museum. Definitely a must-see.
They shut the entry doors 1 hour before it closes. That’s your key to visit the palace and its surroundings avoiding massive crowds. Also, the sunset’s light has a beautiful impact in the architecture
Rent a Hanbok and you get to enter for free! I think this palace is a must visit if you travel to Seoul for the first time! It’s really beautiful seeing so many tourists wearing Hanbok.
The biggest and main palace so if you don’t visiting others this one is must to see! Very big territory so it will take time to walk around. Also don’t miss guard changing ceremony!
