Looking for a peaceful escape in bustling Seoul? My Korean friend took me to the Secret Garden (Huwon) at Changdeokgung Palace, and I was absolutely enchanted! ๐ฟโจ
Surrounded by 300- to 400-year-old trees, the garden is a haven of serenity. Gentle breezes, birdsong, and golden leaves made for the perfect afternoon. ๐ฌ๏ธ๐
This place changes with the seasons:
๐ธ Cherry blossoms in spring
๐บ Lotus flowers in summer
๐ Fiery red maples in fall
โ๏ธ Snowy wonderland in winter
๐ Info
Location: 99 Yulgok-ro, Jongno-gu, Seoul
Admission: โฉ5,000
๐ก Reservation required online โ guided tours available in Chinese, English, or Korean
The Secret Garden isnโt just a scenic walk โ itโs an immersive journey into Koreaโs royal past. Donโt miss this lesser-known treasure in the heart of Seoul! ๐ฟ
