Take quiet morning stroll at Changdeokgung garden
Changdeokgung will be offering 90-minute sessions for visitors to tour the garden on their own in the quiet calm of the morning from Aug. 22-25.
The self-guided tour, taking place from 7:30 a.m. to 9 a.m., will accept the first 100 people who have purchased a 10,000 won ticket through booking website Interpark. Tickets will be available starting at 2 p.m., Wednesday.
The palace typically opens at 9 a.m. and is usually only accessible as part of a guided tour.
Ticket holders will be briefed on the garden at Donhwamun, the main gate of the palace. They will be given postcards with a sketch of the palace.
“Many have asked for this self-tour, saying they want a quieter garden walk,” a palace official said.
