Gyeongbok Palace is probably Korea's most famous royal palace. It is located at the northern end of Seoul's main boulevard, Sejongro, close to the President's residence and the U.S embassy. The Palace was built in the late 1300s, and has been destroyed and reconstructed numerous times. There are English tours available for visitors to learn more about Korea's architectural traditions and court customs.
