I've been to this palace before, but every time I go, I enjoy it, especially when I was accompanied by four beautiful ladies dressed in hanbok attire or traditional Korean clothing. Gyeongbokgung, Korean: 경복궁; Hanja: 景福宮, also known as Gyeongbokgung Palace or Gyeongbok Palace, was the main royal palace of the Joseon dynasty. Built-in 1395, it is located in northern Seoul, South Korea. The largest of the Five Grand Palaces built by the Joseon dynasty, Gyeongbokgung served as the home of the Kings of the Joseon dynasty, the Kings' households, as well as the government of Joseon. Gyeongbokgung continued to serve as the main palace of the Joseon dynasty until the premises were destroyed by fire during the Imjin War (1592–1598) and abandoned for two centuries. However, in the 19th century, all of the palace's 7,700 rooms were restored under the leadership of Prince Regent Heungseon during the reign of King Gojong. In addition, some 500 buildings were fixed on over 40 hectares. As a result, the architectural principles of ancient Korea were incorporated into the tradition and appearance of the Joseon royal court. Reference: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gyeongb...
