Jeongdong-gil, a 1km path stretching from Deoksugung's Daehanmun to Sinmunno, retains the appearance of late Joseon-era Hanyang.

The name 'Jeongdong' originates from the location of the tomb of Queen Sin-deok, the consort of King Taejo Lee Seong-gye.

Walking along the Deoksugung stone wall, a popular dating spot in Seoul, you will pass lush trees.

The journey begins at Jeongdong Church, the first Protestant building established in 1897. As you ascend the small hill on the left, you will find the newly renovated Seoul Museum of Art, symbolizing the cultural street.

One of the best walking paths in Seoul, the Jeongdong Cultural Festival, held every October, is a signature street festival.

'Gojong's Path' refers to the route used by King Gojong to travel between Deoksugung and the Russian Legation after the Gwangmu Restoration in 1896.

The total length of this path is 120 meters, connecting the Deoksugung stone wall to Jeongdong Park and the Russian Legation.

Over the Deoksugung stone wall, you can view the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art before heading to the Seoul Museum of Art...

From December 16, 2025, to March 29, 2026, the exhibition 'The Close World' will be held.

In the exhibition 'Recording Streets, Not Landscapes', conceived by Mohammed Kazim and Cristiana de Marco...
