Changdeokgung

Truly stunning. I do recommend doing the secret garden as well. It's incredibly peaceful and beautiful. The tours themselves don't take too long but I could spend hours sitting in the garden and relaxing. Very rich history and well informed tour guides

Excellent detailed audio guide in English. If you’ve already seen Gueongbokgung Palace, this is a great alternative to learn more about the same period in history as it was built as a secondary palace to the first and much of real life governing happened here rather than its more famous cousin. The gift shop and cafe closes at 5 though the palace is open until later, something to be aware of. Entry is cheap and easy too using a foreign credit card.

The main palace, but you need to see also all the other in Seoul. I do not know how many pictures I took….colora are amazing….in the afternoon when the sun is moving down is for me the best moment.

This was the first place I visited in Seoul and it was so beautiful. The architecture and colours of the buildings are stunning, and I was lucky enough to see a short concert while I was there too. Also, the gardens are lovely to stroll around.

Entrance is free if you are wearing Hanbok. We had better pictures here than the other palace because there are less tourists. The view is still spectacular.

Let me state first, that the secret garden did not deliver on what I personally had in mind, because it very much just felt like a regular part of the palace. I think you should still give it a go, but it's more of a park than a garden. The palace grounds are extensive. If you enjoy strolling around parks and nature, this is def a good option to enjoy that. There was one petrol colored lacquered roof that really stood out from the usual affair. Even though there might be similarities between the palaces in Seoul, you will see and feel the differences too, which is why I would suggest visiting them all over different days.

This is one of the other palace besides the usual Gyeongbokgong that tourists go to. There's an entrance fee to in and there is an additional fee if you want to go to the secret garden. It is supposed to have a very beautiful garden where the view is amazing during Autumn periods.

The better of the palace's! Still as colorful as the others, but much less crowded and one can walk around (almost) in peace! The secret garden is timed entry, so you have to buy tickets in advance to make sure you can visit the same day as your regular entry. There are so many excellent photo opportunities on the palace grounds. Make sure you have time to lose yourself in the many buildings and feel the history and the vibe! Highly recommend!
