The Changdeokgung Palace Complex is a World Heritage site in South Korea defined by the UNESCO in 1997 and definitely a recommended cultural sightseeing Location.
It is on position 558 (855, 831) in our monthly survey..
"In the early 15th century, the King Taejong ordered the construction of a new palace at an auspicious site. A Bureau of Palace Construction was set up to create the complex, consisting of a number of official and residential buildings set in a garden that was cleverly adapted to the uneven topography of the 58-ha site. The result is an exceptional example of Far Eastern palace architecture and design, blending harmoniously with the surrounding landscape."
