   I had a  great time in Changgyeong Palace today. Changgyeong Palace was much different than Hanok Cillage. It was bigger and more splendid. There were a lot of significant facts in Changgyeong Palace.

     First the whole palace was divided into two sections; the inner and outer palaces. The outer palace was for the king's official works and studying. The throne hall, named Myeongjeongjeon, is placed in the outer palace. The buildings such as Sungmundang and Munjeongjeon where the king studied in are also in the outer palace. When we go through the Binyangmun, the first building that appears is Haminjeong which is the first building in the inner palace. Behind Haminjeong, there are several buildings for women. Gyeongchunjeon, and Tongmyeongjeon were especially for the queens and the king's mother. The special thing that I noticed was that the most important buildings are always located in the highest elevation in the palace, and Tongmyeongjeon which was a shrine is an example of it. Furthermore, there were some meaningful structures such as Dumu and Haechi. Dumu was used as a system that drove imaginary fire monsters away from the palace by their own reflection in the water. Haechi was thought to be an animal which leads people to make true decisions. 

     Finally, there were lots of splendid structures that I didn't know existed in Changgyeong Palace. I feel proud learning about our culture and hope many people will visit and learn more. 

 

Great job! Be careful with your use of commas (,) though. You use it a lot when it isn't needed sometimes. Very good job though!
