I
went to Unhyeongung Palace. Unhyeongung palace isn't a palace. But after Gojong
became the king, people started to name it Unhyeongung Palace. It had only 4
buildings. It was Sujiksa, Noandang, Norakdang, and Irodang. Sujiksa was where
the guards and the servants of Unhyeongung stayed. Noandang is the Sarangchae.
Heungsun Daewongun met guests and discussed political issues here. Norakdang
was where Heungsun Daewongun's family lived. But after Gojong and Empress
Myeongseong got married, they had to move out. Gojong and Myeongsung's wedding
was held here. Irodang was where Heungsun Daewongun's family lived after Gojong
got married. I also got to learn about other things as well like the meanings
of the lofty gates and the Juryeons. I really enjoyed going to Unhyeongung
Palace today and I am looking forward to going to the Namsan Hanok Villiage
tomorrow.
