Today, I went Unhyeon Palace. Unhyeon Palace wasn't a real palace before, but now it is. Heungson Daewongun, who was Gojong's father, lived there. Also, all of Gojong's family lived there too.

I'd like to write about the buildings in Unhyeon Palace; Noandang, Norakdang, and Irodang. First of all, Noandang is for men such as Gojong's father. When Gojong was a young king, he lived there just before he moved to Changdeok Palace. Near the room where important person like noblemen lived, there is the room for guards and servants. Actually, Noandang means 'living comfortablly in old age'. THe shape of Noandang is like"L".

Secondly, Norakdang is the place for women such as queen(when Gojong was young)or Gojong's mother. There are rooms for women who works for queen who was not servants. The kitchen there is very big and there is also a big keeping place too. Women servents cooked there.

Finally, Irodang is a similar place as Norakdang. It's for women. Since people couldn't use Norakdang all as a Anchae, They built this building.

I saw a Korean traditional wedding ceremony and it was gorgeous. It was unique! It was very different as modern wedding ceremony. I could see a beauty of Korean traditional house(Hanok)there, Unhyeon Palace.
