The only palace in Seoul where you can see west meet east and traditional meet modern. For sheer ease of access you can't beat Deoksugung, located right next to City Hall in the heart of modern downtown Seoul. It was the main palace during the period of late Joseon Dynasty. Today Doeksugung embellished with spring cherry blossom and yellow gingko leaves in fall. Couple loves to walk around the stone palace wall enjoying the unique feel of the palace.
