Deoksugung Palace

December 28, 2019



Deoksugung Palace was just a walking distance from where we were staying in Myeongdong. It is one of the major palaces in Seoul and  we chose this place to visit because aside from its distance it is a bit less crowded than the others. The compound was small compared to the rest but it was enough for us to see and experience what is inside the compound.





















It was a nice to see the changing of guards in the palace. They were fully dressed in traditional attire with vibrant colors. The drumbeats and chants really caught our attention and kept us following them to the gates. The activity lasted just a couple of minutes and for me it was the highlight of all the things happened in the palace.

Aside from the place inside, the walls outside is one of the attraction in Seoul since it is the film location of Goblin - a popular K-drama. We had a wonderful walk along the street as the weather was cool and the leaves was started to change to yellow.
