Gyeongbokgung Palace, located in Sejongno, South Korea, is a grand symbol of Korea's royal heritage, built in 1395 during the Joseon Dynasty. Known as the "Palace of Shining Happiness," it served as the heart of the dynasty until it was destroyed during the Imjin War. Restored in the 19th century, it offers a glimpse into Korea's architectural brilliance with its elegant pavilions, expansive gardens, and the iconic Gwanghwamun Gate. The Changing of the Guard ceremony at the main gate is a must-see spectacle conducted daily. Within the palace complex, visitors can explore the National Palace Museum and the National Folk Museum, providing cultural insights. For an immersive experience, consider wearing a traditional hanbok, available for rent nearby, which allows free entry to the palace.
