Tips for Today’s Events!

On Saturday and Sunday mornings, we recommend time travel at the Seoul City Wall. As you walk along the fortress, you can feel its long history. Please make prior reservation via the website.


Changgyeonggung, Deoksugung and Changdeokgung Palaces are all closed today. So why not try a treasure hunt at Gyeongbokgung Palace and enjoy a fun-packed day with all the family. Upon arriving at the palace, simply book a ticket at the registration desk, and then set out to solve a set of missions inside the palace grounds within the specified time. If you solve them all, you will be rewarded with lots of attractive souvenirs.


After Gyeongbokgung Palace, the Treasure Hunt at Deoksugung Palace awaits you. Upon arriving at the palace, simply register yourself at the registration desk, and then set out to solve a set of missions inside the palace grounds within the specified time. If you solve them all, you will be rewarded with lots of attractive souvenirs. As there is no parking at Deoksugung Palace, we recommend you use public transport to get there.


From 9am, an integrated information desk as well as permanent exhibitions is open at the Gyeongbokgung Heungraemun Plaza, the main event venue. The first step to enjoying the royal culture festival more effectively! With a pamphlet obtained from the information desk, decide “your meetings” for today. At the permanent exhibition hall, you can see the appearance of palaces in digitalized form.
