What first comes to your mind when you think of ‘palace’ in Korea?? Is it the traditional hanok?
–
⛲️Seokjojeon Hall, situated inside the Deoksugung Palace, is one of Seoul’s top five palaces. It is not a traditional hanok but a European-style stone architecture constructed in 1910. In accordance with the style of European palace architecture in the 18th century, Seokjojeon Hall was said to be the largest Western-style building built at that time.

Seokjojeon Hall boasts a perfect proportion and bilateral symmetry and has a reception room, a large dining room, a bedroom, and a study hall inside. After the restoration project to its original form, this stone architecture regained its historical significance by opening as the “Daehan Empire Historical Museum” in 2014.✨
