Seoul Itinerary Day 2: Changdeokgung Palace, Gyeongbokgung Palace, Insadong, Jongmyo Shrine, Namdaemun Market<\/h1>\n

There are 5 palaces in Seoul, but don’t bother visiting them all. They look all the same after a while. TIP: note that the palaces close on different days of the week and Jongmyo shrine only allows guided tours at specific timing, so you’ll have to plan carefully.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The palaces, shrine and Insadong are about 15-20 minutes’ walk from each other.<\/p>\n

\"Gyeongbokgung\"
\nStart early with Gyeongbokgung Palace<\/strong><\/a> (pictured above), the biggest and most important palace. It was first built in 1394 but was destroyed by palace servants in 1592 to eradicate records of their service. Rebuilt by King Gojong in 1872, he fled to Russia in 1885 when the Japanese sent assassins to murder his wife in the palace.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"Jongmyo
\nNot a ghost, that’s the guide for Jongmyo Shrine.<\/em><\/p>\n

Cross the major road to Insadong<\/strong> to have an early lunch and walk east to get to the UNESCO world heritage site Jongmyo Shrine<\/a> at 12pm<\/strong> to catch the English guided tour. IMPT: Jongmyo Shrine does not allow tourists to roam the grounds except on Saturday. You must catch an one-hour guided tour for the rest of the week (closed Tue).<\/span> Built in 1394, an annual ceremony to honor dead monarchs, considered most complete ceremony in the world, is held here on the first Sun of May. This was one of the highlights to me<\/strong> because there was a sense of serenity in the shrine.<\/p>\n

\"Jongmyo
\nThe folding doors have a gap because it allows the spirits to enter in and out of Jongmyo Shrine.<\/em><\/p>\n

The guided tour will end at 1pm. You have go to a cafe and rest. Then walk north for 15-20 minutes to another UNESCO site Changdeokgung Palace<\/a><\/strong>, where the last prince died in 1970, arriving for the 2.30pm English tour<\/strong>. There are two tours here, one for the palace buildings and one for the palace garden. <\/strong>The 2.30pm tour, focussing on palace buildings, lasts for an hour and then you should immediately hop on to the next tour at 3.30pm for Biwon<\/strong> or “Secret Garden.”<\/p>\n

\"Toto's
\nOn display at Toto’s Museum, Hello Kitty ironing in a Hello Kitty iron. Very postmodern.<\/em><\/p>\n

Now you can rest. Walk back to Insadong<\/strong> to explore the area. I loved this neighborhood, full of teahouses and cafes. It felt very leisurely and arty but not as commercial and fake as Garosugil<\/strong> at Sinsa, an area my friend recommended. There is a toy museum<\/strong> along the main street, Toto’s Nostalgia Museum<\/strong> (169-2, 2nd floor, Gwanhun-dong, Jongno-gu \uc11c\uc6b8 \uc885\ub85c\uad6c \uad00\ud6c8\ub3d9 169-2; +82-2-725-1756, 10am-9pm daily), that showcases toys from the 60s to present. It isn’t worth going because the toys are in a mess without any explanation or proper cataloguing.<\/p>\n

\"Namdaemun
\nWhen you have rested enough, take a train to Namdaemun Shijiang<\/a><\/strong> (pictured above), the largest tradition market in Korea since 1414. They say if you can’t find it here, it doesn’t exist. I was there from about 6-8pm and by 8pm the shops seemed to be closing. Although according to the tourism website, it seems that the shops reopen at midnight. I’d advise you to come here and eat but not shop<\/strong><\/span> because the vendors jack up the prices.<\/p>\n

\"Gogung
\n\"Gogung1. Gogung Insadong Store<\/strong><\/a> BIMBIBAP The shop is in a gray building where there is a tourist information booth. The bimbibap was quite refreshing, even though I ate it in the heat of summer.
