Deoksugung Palace is the only palace that sits alongside a series of western style buildings that add to the uniqueness of the surrounding scenery.
Every hourly they have performance . Nice palace easy to explore and not so big.
Nice place. The audio guide is cheap but still not worth it. Check out the little cafe near the exit.
Admission fee to the palace grounds is just KRW 1000. It has less visitors compared to Gyeongbokgung. Make sure to catch the changing of the guards ceremony!
Quiet park with historical buildings . Come there in the evening.

Beautiful palace and gardens but the modern part breaks the armony. You have to see the change of guards
Deoksugung Palace became a proper palace when Gwanghaegun (1575-1641) ascended to the throne and gave this royal residence the name Gyeongungung Palace in 1611.
changing of guards ceremony was nice! at the same time, we had the chance to try hanbok, for free! :) we went there at 3pm, just in time for the 3:30-4 pm ceremony.
Amazing ancient palace that stands in stark contrast to the modern city skyline.
Smaller and more modest than the other palaces bit still beautiful

석조전은 15명씩 사전예약자들만 입장 가능. 근처 직장인이라면 12-14시 점심시간동안 입장가능한 10회권(3개월 3천원) 추천합니다.
성종의 형인 월산대군의 저택이 임진왜란 후 선조 임시 거처로 쓰이다가 광해군이 경운궁으로 정식궁호. 이후 고종이 황위에서 물러나면서 오래사시라는 의미에서 덕수궁으로 바뀌었습니다. 원래 크기는 지금의 3배 수준이었으나 일제 강점기때 크게 훼손되었습니다.
