PlaceActivities
Gyeongbokgung Palace
Go through Gwanghwamun and let the courtyards set the pace. The palace is a different experience in daylight and after dark.
Restaurants Seochon & Gyeongbokgung
Tosokchon Samgyetang
A hot bowl of samgyetang before or after the palace. Give lunch enough time to be more than a quick refuelling stop.

- 5 Jahamun-ro 5-gil, Jongno-guSeochon & Gyeongbokgung · ₩₩
An unhurried chicken-soup stop to put beside a Seochon and palace day.
Our take
The hanok setting makes this a natural Seochon pairing with a palace visit. Order for your appetite and leave room in the schedule for a popular dining room rather than assuming an immediate seat.
The published daily hours are 10:00 to 22:00. Confirm holiday service and the current menu directly; prices are not fixed in this listing. If your next stop is Gyeongbokgung, remember that the palace normally closes on Tuesdays.
