What you'll hear

Gwanghwamun Square and Gyeongbokgung Palace are connected, but statues, gates, bridges, and palace halls can feel like separate stops. This guide helps you move from the civic square into the palace with a clearer sense of sequence.

This audio guide links the statues of Admiral Yi Sun-sin and King Sejong with Gwanghwamun Gate, Heungnyemun Gate, Yeongjegyo Bridge, Geunjeongjeon Hall, and nearby royal spaces. It explains political symbolism, palace ceremony, and visual details such as the throne, rank stones, and Sun-Moon-Five-Peaks screen.

The guide is available on the web, so you can begin listening right away and choose chapters by location. Stop, replay, or skip ahead as you move between the square, gates, bridge, and palace halls.
