If you read through the history of Deoksugung you will find out that this palace had been because a temporary stay places for Bristish, American, Germany & Italy diplomatic personnel back in 18 century. Probably this National Museum of Contemporary Art "MMCA" building is where they stay previously. Dear and me did not enter this Museum because we plan to visit others places before the sun down.

(Day 8) South Korea Seoul - Deoksugung "德壽宮大汉门"

After finish watching the Gate guardian exchange position demonstration. Deoksugung "德壽宮大汉门" only open from admission. As per research per pax entry is 1000KRW but today the personnel said entry fee is free in conjunction of New Year Eve celebration. Deoksugung "德壽宮大汉门" had been use as temporary palace due to the rest of palace had been destroy by the Japan Empire back in year 1592. Well it is smaller size palace in Seoul City. Dear and me had our sweet time to visit one by one of this palace because really less people visiting on this hour. Dear and me feel that this palace is a great places to stop by before visit others in Seoul City.
