| Changgyeonggung Palace

 

Changgyeonggung Palace has a long history. A summer palace

known as Sunganggung was first built at this location in 1104

during the reign of King Sukjong of the Goryeo Dynasty. King

Sejong (1418-1450) began construction of this palace for his

retiring father, King Taejong. It often served as residential

quarters for queens and concubines. During the reign of King

Seongjong (1469-1494), the palace was renovated and

renamed to Changgyeonggung Palace.
