Gyeongun Palace is special because it's designed in western style. Junghwajeon was the main building because it held events like royals wedding, and ceremonies. Inside, there is a beautifully decorated throne. Behind that there is a picture. The sun represents the king, moon represents the queen, 5 mountain peaks represent Korea. Jeukjodang was the place for coronations. This is where Prince Gwanghae, King Injo and Sunjo came to the throne. I imagined the prince and the king right in front of me. It was like experiencing history. Next, we saw Jeonggwangheon. I noticed that it shows both Korean and Western architectural designs. In the past, King Gojong used to drink coffee and relax here. I never knew that they had coffee in the past too. That was an interesting fact I learned that day. Something that caught our eyes was the water clock. I was real excited to see this because I learned this last year in school. But it was fake.
The originals have gone somewhere. I wonder where they went. We better find the water clock because that's part of our history.
