Today, me and my friends went Gyeongun Palace. At first, we saw the main gate, 대한문.Then, there was a bridge which separated king's space and common civil's space. After crossing over the bridge and enter 중화문 to go 중화전. In front of 중화전, there was 삼도 which king and officials walked across and also twelve rank stone that classified the official's classes.And the ground rock named 박석 was very special.Different from other countries palace, floor rock wasn't made of marvel rock but ugly 박석. Because it wasn't reflect the sunshine and also doesn't slippery even at rainy or snowy days.
There were many buildings in Gyeongun Palace, one of them was my favorite which is 정광헌. 정광헌 is a structure that made beautiful combination with western style and our traditional style. The 고종 emperor also loved this building and used to drink coffee in there.
Through studying about Gyeongun Palace, I learned and also realized three things. First, I thought the king's location was very grand in that time by 광해군's story. Second, our ancestors wwere even funny just as coffee episode. It is ridiculous for nowadays people. Last, I had surprised at our andcestor's scientific construction skills which made great buildings in Gyeongun Palace.And also it was amazing that some of the buildings were merged the western style architecture.
It was pretty new and amazing experience to me with Gyeongun Palace.
Thank you for reading my essay.
