One of the most iconic monuments of Seoul that was in many Korean movies. It’s much more huge and wast than it seems from the photos and it’s always crowded, but it’s a must see when you’re in Seoul

Incredible landmark. Visit the Sejong King museum underground. Great views of the mountains surrounding Seoul. Recommend to visit both at day and night!

Beautiful historical monument, you could spend a good 1-2 hours here enjoying the scenery and taking pictures. A MUST SEE if you had to choose just one historical site during your stay.

광화문은 경복궁의 정문이다. 광화문은 조선의 법궁에 해당하는 궁궐의 정문으로서 다른 궁궐들의 정문과는 달리 돌로 높은 석축을 쌓고 그 위에 중층구조의 누각을 세워서 마치 성곽의 성문과 같은 격식으로 장대하게 지어졌다.

서울의 중심. 봄날 광장이 가장 아름답다.

観光客多い(自分もその内の一人)。前回の韓国旅行では夕方に行ったので門が閉じてた記憶。今回は中に入れて韓国独特の着物?着た人達の守門将交代式を見ることができた。光化門のさらに先の門をくぐるには 3000ウォンを支払う必要がある。有料の門の先に行くと池があったりとかなり広い。何か凄い既視感だったけど実は中に入ったことがあるかも...
