This afternoon tour is a excellent way to introduce yourself to Korea and Korean history. The first stop is at Changdeok Palace. This 16th century structure is a well preserved national treasure. The palace grounds are comprised of a public palace area, the royal family residence building and the rear garden. Known as a place of rest for the kings, the rear garden boasts a gigantic tree that is over 300 years old, a small pond and a pavilion. Just down the street is Insadong, a district where there is a massive antique market where old but precious and traditional goods are on display and for sale.
