Gyeonghuigung

  Gyeonghuigung sits at the heart of Seoul, nestled at 161, Sajik-ro, Jongno-gu, adjacent to the more famous Gyeongbokgung Palace. Built in 1616, it served as a secondary palace for the Joseon Dynasty and offers a glimpse into the royal family's life during that era. Notably, the palace features traditional architecture and serene gardens, making it a tranquil spot in the bustling city. Visitors can explore its grounds year-round, but spring, particularly in April, welcomes cherry blossoms that transform the area into a picturesque scene. While wandering, be sure to check out the ancient trees, some over a century old, which enhance the historical ambiance.
