The route, from the entrance of Gyeongbokgung Palace to Geunjeongjeon Hall and Gyeonghoeru Pavilion, isn't long, but it's enough to make for a special time. There's a reason why it's a popular night viewing spot in Seoul for couples, families, and friends.

Those eligible for free admission do not need to make advance reservations, so if you have a Hanbok, be sure to wear it! You can take beautiful photos and make great memories.

Many people visit Gyeongbokgung Palace at night to see this view of Gyeonghoeru Pavilion. From the reflection in the pond to every angle, it's such a beautiful sight.

Looking at the photos makes me want to visit again in the second half of the year.
I highly recommend that anyone who has never been to Gyeongbokgung Palace for the night opening should definitely go!❤️ Tickets sell out quickly on weekends, so plan your schedule carefully and enjoy your visit!
