#Seoul Itinerary Day 1: The Confucian Heritage of Sungkyunkwan Walking into Sungkyunkwan University is like traveling back to the Joseon Dynasty. This Confucian temple has a history of more than 600 years and is the highest center of education and Confucianism in South Korea. On campus, the ancient wooden buildings are intertwined with the modern academic atmosphere, which is particularly fascinating. I strolled along the central axis of the campus, passing through green courtyards and quiet study halls, and felt the profound influence of Confucian spirit. Standing in front of the Dacheng Hall, I recalled the scenes in history where countless students knelt down to worship Confucius, and my heart was filled with respect. In the afternoon, I visited the Sungkyunkwan Museum and learned about the development of Korean education and culture through the cultural relics in the collection. Day 2: Cultural Footprints in Seoul The next day, I chose Changdeokgung Palace and Jongmyo Shrine to continue my exploration of traditional culture. The secret garden of Changdeokgung Palace is picturesque, with lush ancient trees and a pond reflecting the palace walls, like a tranquil landscape painting. Afterwards, I went to Jongmyo Shrine, where tablets of successive Korean monarchs are enshrined. The solemn and dignified atmosphere was awe-inspiring. At night, I returned to Insadong, visited traditional bookstores and stationery stores, and picked up some calligraphy tools as souvenirs. During the two-day journey, I experienced the profound cultural heritage and scholarly atmosphere of Seoul in the fusion of ancient and modern times.
