Dondeokjeon, the space where the emperor received foreign envoys🇰🇷

#JanuaryTravelSupportEvent #korea #FebruaryTravelSupportEvent A Winter Historical Walk Alone at Deoksugung Dondeokjeon On the afternoon of February 18th, I felt the majesty of the Joseon Dynasty in front of Deoksugung Dondeokjeon. This building, rebuilt in 1904, is said to be the space where Emperor Gojong received foreign envoys. The red pillars and blue-green paint contrasted with the snow-covered yard and were dazzling! When the guide told me, "There are traces of damage from the Japanese colonial period under the stairs on the right," I checked and found that there was a clear hammer mark from the Eulsa Treaty. 📌 Checklist of key points for the mixed race Hidden points: British glass windows installed in 1905 behind Dondeokjeon → Rainbow colors are created when sunlight reflects Recommended time: 2-3 PM (sunlight seeping through the gaps in the windows is spectacular) Local restaurant: ‘Gureumdabang’ at the end of Deoksugung Doldamgil, manage your body temperature with homemade chestnut latte (6,000 won) 🚨 Precautions No entry inside (only outside viewing allowed) Slippery stairs in winter (winter shoes required) Security guards will stop flash photography Around 5 o'clock, I felt the breath of history as I walked along the stone wall path connecting Seokjojeon and Dondeokjeon. My hands were cold in the cold weather, but I was proud to upload a picture of the sunset reflected on the glass window to Instagram! 🌇 The staff told me that "they open at night when the cherry blossoms bloom in spring," so I'm looking forward to visiting again in April. #2024WishEvent #koreatrip #Dondeokjeon
