Nestled along an old stone road in Seoul’s bustling Jung-gu neighborhood, Deoksugung Palace stands out among the surrounding Western-style buildings. As one of the five traditional Joseon palaces, it holds a unique place in the city’s history and architecture. The palace is particularly notable for its evening hours, when the grounds and structures are beautifully illuminated, offering visitors a serene and visually striking experience after dark.
