GYEONGBOKGUNG PALACE
SEOUL, SOUTH KOREA
IMAGE NUMBER 939
Gyeongbokgung Palace is widely considered among the finest royal palaces in Seoul, with a history dating back to the 14th-century Joseon dynasty. Visitors to the palace may take advantage of a "hanbok" (traditional Korean attire) rental service and dress up like Joseon-era royalty. The phoney aristocracy is one of the most intriguing features of the palace.
