Today was very nice day because I was happy to learn about Gyeongunpalace history and features. I didn't know about Gyeongun palace before that. Now I do like to talk about the features.The main gate of Gyeongun palace,대화문 was very large. The first time I saw that I feel a great power.There was a stone bridge,하마비. We should walk on the stone bridge. There were 정화전, 정명당 and 석조존. I like 정화문 and 정관헌. 정화문 is the gate to enter 정화전.
Choseon was kings country, not emperors. But in the signboard of 정화문, the letter was written by gold color. Gold means emperor. Other palace's signboard is written by white color.
I was surprised that king 고종 anounced himself an emperior. 정관헌 is the western building where king 고종likes to drank coffee. It was built by russian architecture. There are many vat decorations. Vat is good animal for Asian countries. At that times people didn't know how to drink coffee, so they drink by one shot. Anyway I think 경운palace is diffrent palace with other palace. I hope I can learn more about this palace. |
