Exploring Yeongyeongdang in the Secret Garden of Changdeokgung Palace

I was deeply impressed while touring Yeongyeongdang, located in the Secret Garden of Changdeokgung Palace. 🌿

True to its name, which means 'wishing for auspicious events to spread widely,' Yeongyeongdang exudes a modest yet elegant atmosphere. 🦋

Instead of ornate dancheong (traditional Korean decorative coloring), the pavilion showcases the natural grain of the wood, revealing understated beauty. It felt like a cozy and practical space within the royal lifestyle. 🌼

🔮 Particularly striking was its harmonious scenery, nestled deep within the Secret Garden, as if it were one with nature. In its tranquility, I could sense both the refined dignity of ancient scholars and the sophisticated taste of the royal family.

Strolling through Yeongyeongdang, I found myself wishing for 'auspicious energy to spread widely' as well. 🍁
