I beg you to name it 景福宮), so that your Majesty and your descendants may enjoy the majesty of peace for many years to come, and let the people everywhere see and feel the way . Originally , it was a palace planned by the Shinjinsa Godfather , so Reflecting the Confucian ideology of ' Frugal but not shabby, splendid but not extravagant. According to the Confucian viewpoint, the layout was in the form of three groups.

It played an important role as the royal palace of the Joseon Dynasty during the Imjin War and the first half of the Joseon Dynasty. Gyeongbokgung Palace was designed with a strict geometrical space division, a straight axis , and an orderly symmetrical structure to express its authority as a legal palace . Changdeokgung Palace(+ Changgyeonggung) and Yanggung , the kings alternately used the two palaces according to their tastes.

After being burned down during the Japanese Invasion of Imjin, only the site was not rebuilt for over 200 years, but it was rebuilt by Heungseon Daewongun and has been passed down to this day.

to Hanyang in 1394 (the 3rd year of King Taejo), the third year of the founding of the Joseon Dynasty, and moved Gyeongbokgung to Jeonggung ( Beopgung ) . However, after the 1st Prince Rebellion, King Jeongjong ascended to the throne in 1399 (the 1st year of King Jeongjong) . The capital was moved back to the capital Ingaegyeong. However, Taejong, who took the throne after King Jeongjong , decided to relocate to Hanyang . As a preliminary work for Jaecheondo, Taejong ordered the construction of a palace in Hyanggyo-dong, and construction began in 1404 (the 4th year of King Taejong) and was completed in 1405 (the 5th year of King Taejong). That palace is Changdeokgung. However, there is already Gyeongbokgung Palace in Hanyang, so building a new palace meant that Taejong did not want to stay in Gyeongbokgung Palace. In the Joseon Dynasty, kings often lived alternately between the two palaces of this type of palace system (兩闕体制) . Before the completion of Changdeokgung, King Taejong left Gaegyeong and arrived at Hanyang, leading to Changdeokgung, not Gyeongbokgung. .After returning to Hanyang in 1405 (the 5th year of King Taejong), Taejong lived mainly in Changdeokgung until he was abdicated by his son Sejong in 1418 (the 18th year of King Taejong) . Taejong avoided Gyeongbokgung because it was the place where he had caused a bloody wind . However, major national events were held mainly at Geunjeongjeon Hall or Gyeonghoeru Pavilion in Gyeongbokgung Palace. At the time of its establishment in 1405 (the 5th year of King Taejong), Changdeokgung Palace had 74 rooms for the outer hall and 118 rooms for the inner hall. Although all the basic functions to function as a palace were once completed, the extension work of Changdeokgung continued even after it was completed.

From the early days of the Joseon Dynasty, the Joseon dynasty continued the yanggung system, using Gyeongbokgung as the legal palace and Changdeokgung as the auxiliary palace. However, successive kings preferred to live in Changdeokgung rather than Gyeongbokgung, and as the royal family increased, the living space in Changdeokgung gradually became cramped. Accordingly, Changgyeonggung is the palace that Seongjong prepared next to Changdeokgung for the comfort of the three members of the royal family, Queen Jeonghui, Queen Sejo, Queen Ansun , and Queen Deokjong, Queen Sohye . 770m

10. Bukchon Hanok Village

Bukchon was a residential area for the noble class built during the Joseon Dynasty, and changes occurred in the 1930s as the administrative districts of Seoul expanded and the urban structure was transformed into a modern one. Housing management companies purchased large lots and forests in Bukchon and collectively built small and medium-sized hanoks there . All of them were formed during this period. Using new materials such as glass doors on the Daecheong and tin visors on the eaves, the hanok in Bukchon did not lose the tangible character of traditional hanok, but it was adapted to the modern urban organization and became a new city . It can be noted that it has evolved into a housing type . Since Bukchon hanok had to build hanok in large quantities, standardized timber supplied from lumber mills was efficiently used, and while maintaining the characteristics of traditional hanok as a whole, it was established as a new urban housing type by adapting to new conditions. The characteristics of Bukchon Hanok can be defined in two ways: the largely evolved old method and the tendency to decorate. Although it did not fully possess the dignity of traditional hanok such as low roof stilts , guldori , double eaves, and a large number of rooms in a narrow daytime, Bukchon Hanok condenses the composition and beauty of hanok. Bukchon Hanok Village has been established as a new urban housing type, reflecting the demand for density and anonymity as an urban housing , as seen in the hanok sales advertisements at the time .

Deoksugung begins with the fact that when King Seonjo, who had fled to Uiju, returned to Hanyang after the Imjin War in 1592, he combined the residence of Daegun Wolsan and several surrounding private houses and used it as a royal palace. After Gwanghaegun ascended to the throne, he moved to Changdeokgung, and the name ' Gyeongungung' came to be used. Deoksugung Palace, which had the appearance of a palace, was reduced in size as it suffered confinement compared to Inmok and the rebellion against King Injo . With the exception of Seokeodang, the rest of the palace was returned to the original owner, and Deoksugung was no longer functioning as a palace where the king officially stayed and was in charge of state affairs. In February 1897, it was converted to Deoksugung Palace, and after proclaiming the name of the country as the Korean Empire, it was equipped with a scale and formality as an imperial palace. However, after the Great Fire of Deoksugung Palace in 1904 and the forced abdication of King Gojong in 1907, Deoksugung Palace was greatly reduced in size and the name was changed from Gyeongungung Palace to Deoksugung Palace . provides peace  City Hall Station, Subway Line 1, Exit 2
