We went to the Gyeongbokgung Palace on Tuesday, 4 July 2023. Unfortunately, it was closed. So we went to the National Palace Museum of Korea, which is opposite the Palace to learn about the History of the Josen Dynasty, (AD 1392 - 1910) an ended with Korea being annexed by Japan.
We visited the Ehwa Womans University. The university is very spacious and the level at dug-in with multi-level basement.

As the university is restricted to tourist, we could only view the place at the outskirt.
On Friday, 7 July, we visited the Gyeongbokgung Palace. The hanbok were rented at the shops outside the palace. Those wearing hanbok will have free entrance. Entrance fees is 3000Kwon.

Most of the palace rooms are out of bound to visitors. We could only walk along the corridors.
In the afternoon, we went to the Bukchon Hanbok village. The village still maintain the traditional houses.
There is a small shop selling fragrance perfume and aroma incenses. Behind the shop has a writer's corner which is very relaxing. The shop name is "Sometime you win, sometime you learn"
The was very hot and so, the family enjoyed some ice-cream!
