Chang Gyeong Palace

Sightseeing, sightseeing, sightseeing around Seoul. I decided to post some pictures of Chang Gyeong Palace. My friend took me to see the castle just next to our university. It was nicee. (Note: tired hip hop dancer writing.)

This is very near to our university. It is cool to have so much different stuff just a short walk away!

A pond with a small island in the castle area. The park seemed to be favoured by older people.

In a greenhouse in the castle area.

From the castle we went to a park called Jongmyo. It is a place where old men gather to play Korean style board games. I mean it was full of old men. It was a bit creepy to be the only blond girl there taking pictures of them...

The park is also unfortunately infamous about the prostitution going on there. Demand creates supply.

Korean style "chess".



We stopped by Insa-dong. I love the bamboo trees!

And got some spicy food from a street food stall.

The man was eager to learn how to say "I love you" in Finnish. I then taught him "minä ra-kas-tan sinua" and he was so happy shouting it to people passing by. :)
