A Royal Walk Through Gyeongbokgung Palace

#summervacay Right in the heart of Seoul, Gyeongbokgung Palace offers a beautiful peek into Korea’s royal past. Built in 1395, this grand palace was once home to kings of the Joseon Dynasty. Visitors can explore wide courtyards, traditional wooden halls, and peaceful ponds. One of the highlights is the Changing of the Guard ceremony at the main gate it’s colorful, lively, and fun to watch. Many people also rent hanbok (Korean traditional dress) for photos and free entry. Whether you’re into history or just want nice views, Gyeongbokgung is a great place to slow down and enjoy Seoul’s charm.
