The last palace we visited was Changgyeonggung.
This Palace was built in 1484, it was destroyed by fire during the Japanese invasion of 1592 and was restored in 1616. Many of the palace buildings were again destroyed by fire again in 1830, and then restored in 1834. During the Japanese occupation, the Japanese changed the name of the palace to Changgyeongwon, demoting it from a gung (palace) to a won (park), to diminish the stature and authority of the Korea royal family. They built a public zone and botanical garden on the premises. From 1983 to 1986, the government removed to zoo and restored the palace to its original state with its original name, Changgyeonggung Palace.
Throne room.
Joanna feeling a little out of place in the back. She says her status would place her at the back she wouldn't get to be up close to the king. According to your rank as a noble person would be where you would stand when the king would address the nobles. The lower your status the farther to the back you would stand.
Chin up Joanna and wipe those tears away and stand proud!!!
Placenta Chamber
When your trees are dying and going to fall over just fill them with cement and they will last forever.
This is the Korean style of petrified wood.
Greenhouse
It wasn't a very impressive greenhouse.
