Begin your tour by meeting your guide at the Deoksugung Daehanmun Gate near City Hall Station, where you will enter the palace to admire the striking contrast between traditional wooden pavilions and the grand Western-style Seokjojeon Hall while learning from your guide about the turbulent late Joseon Dynasty, the Korean Empire, and Emperor Gojong.
