I then went to visit 창덕궁 (Changdeokgung) Palace, it also belongs to the 조선 (Joseon) Dynasty. It's name 창덕궁 means Palace of Prospering Virtue. The particularity of this palace is that it retained many elements dating from the 삼국시대(Three Kingdoms of Korea period) on of it is that it blends with nature which is even more visible when you enter 비원 (Secret garden). 창덕궁 has been partially destroyed during Japanese occupation and currently only 30% of it remains. It is now classified as a UNESCO World Heritage list. It has been used as a filming location of the drama 大長今 (Dae Jang Geum).
