Gyeongun palace
Today I went to Gyeongun palace. Gyeongun palace was King Seongjong’s older brother’s house. Before King Seongjong moved to Gyeongun Palace, Gyeongun palace was empty. Gyeongun palace entrance is Daehanmun. Originally, Inhwamun was the maingate of Gyeongun palace. But Inhwamun was burned long ago. King Gojong liked to drink coffee in Jeonggwangheon. Jeonggwangheon shows Korean and Western architecture designs. If you see Jeonggwangheon’s outer part you can see bat shapes. Seokeodang is the only two-story building in Gyeongun palace. In Hamneongjeon was the king’s sleeping place. Deokhongjeon was the reception hall for people who came from other places. I really enjoy studying about Gyeongun palace. I want to go hear with my family one more time.
