Today, I went the Gyeongbok Palace. In there, I learned about Joson's kings and royal families. There were 5 palaces in Joson. They are Geongbok Palace, Gueonghee Palace, Gyeongun Palace, Changgyeong Palace and Changdeok Palace. Gyeongbok Palace was the main palace of all. There are Mt. Gwanak in the back and steam in the front;we call it 'Baesanimsu'. Also, we separate Gyeongbok Palace into Inner Palace and Outer Palace. Inner Palace is for the Royal families and Outer Palace is for offical works and ceremonies. 

 The main gate of Gyeongbok Palace is Gwanghwa-mun. The Japanese changed its position, so we rebuilt it recently. If we enter this gate, we can see Stone bridge. Our ancestors believed that Stone bridge can wash people's mind clearly. There is a big building across the bridge and we called it Geunjeong-jeon. There was a big ceremonies such as cornations, weddings, and Chinese envoy receptions. There are Sageong-jeon near Geunjeong-jeon and it is the King's private office. Also, there are Gangneong-jeon, Gyotae-jeon and Jageong-jeon. Each of them are for the King, Queen, and King's mother. The best part of Gyeongbok Palce is Gyeonghoe-ru. Gyeonghoe-rue is Royal families' resting place. There is a pond around the building. The island of the pond symbolizes heaven and pond symbolizes the earth. It makes me cool.

 Gyeongbok Palace is very beautiful, but it has a sad story. At first, King Taejo built it, but Japanese destroyed it. Later, Heunseon Daewongun rebuilt it, but Queen Min murdered in here and Japanese destroyed it again. After Independence, there were a Korean war and Gyeongbok Palace was extremely destroyed. Fortunately, we rebuilt it again and now we can see a real Gyeongbok Palace. Gyeongbok Palace will not be destroyed again!
