The Changdeokgung complex, also known as Changdeokgung …

Years: 1610 - 1610

The Changdeokgung complex, also known as Changdeokgung Palace or Changdeok Palace, set within a large park in present Jongno-gu, Seoul, South Korea, is one of the "Five Grand Palaces" built by the kings of the Joseon Dynasty.

Like the other Five Grand Palaces in Seoul, Changdeokgung was heavily damaged in 1592 during the Japanese occupation of Korea.

Injeongjeon Hall, the throne hall of Changdeokgung, is used for major state affairs including the coronation of a new king and receiving foreign envoys.

Originally built in 1405, the badly burned structure is rebuilt in 1610.
