Gyeongbokgung Palace │ Hanbok Rental Shop for Special Me [Gigibebe Hanbok]

Gyeongbokgung Palace is closed every Tuesday. We recommend visiting on weekdays to avoid the crowds on weekends and public holidays, allowing for a more leisurely experience taking photos and exploring in your hanbok. If possible, arrive shortly after opening in the morning; there are fewer people then, and the lighting is also ideal for photography.

You can take Seoul Subway Line 3 to 'Gyeongbokgung Station' and exit from Exit 5 to reach Gyeongbokgung Palace directly. Alternatively, you can take Line 5 to 'Gwanghwamun Station', exit from Exit 2, and it's about a 10-minute walk.

According to Gyeongbokgung Palace's policy, visitors wearing a traditional Korean hanbok can enter for free and do not need to purchase a ticket. This is a great opportunity to experience traditional culture while saving on admission fees.
