The Youth Cultural Corps were in full force at these historical places in Seoul on the 16th and 17th of March. Here are some photos that we took of the students giving a tour.
Namsan Hanok Village
During the Joseon Dynasty, the foot of Namsan Mountain was where the locals went to enjoy the weather. It is now a tourist spot where many cultural programs and activities occur throughout the year. Five hanoks from various parts of Seoul were relocated here to remind people of how Koreans used to live in the past.
Deoksugung
The original name of Deoksugung was Gyeongungung. It was the main palace of the Joseon Dynasty after the Imjin Wars. Even though this palace is small, it has a lot to offer to visitors. One example is the changing of the royal guards in front of Daehanmun Gate. It is a spectacle you can see everyday except Mondays.
Gyeongbokgung
As the largest palace in Seoul, there is a lot to see at Gyeongbokgung. Even though most of the palace buildings were destroyed during the Japanese Colonial Period, you can still find a few buildings such as Gyeonghoeru Pavilion there. If you want to learn more about how the royal family had lived during the Joseon Dynasty, try visiting the National Palace Museum. Many relics from the past can be found there.
