Take Me There!'s video: Seoul Walk: Gwanghwamun Square @Line 5 - Seoul South Korea 4K

If you are on the lookout for some arts and culture in Seoul, you have probably heard of the Gwanghwamun Square. The Gwanghwamun is how the main gate to Seoul's biggest palace - the Gyeongbokgung Palace - is called. But even outside the palace walls, there are many great things to see! Overseen by great King Sejong, the inventor of the Korean Script Hangul, the Gwanghwamun Square boasts many tall public buildings at its sides. There is the music conservatory, the history museum, the American embassy - and beneath the ground one of the largest book shopping centers in Seoul - the Kyobo Book Store. But also the Gyeongbokgung Palace, at the head of the Gwanghwamun Square, is worth a visit all on its own. Fitted with the amazing view of mountains in the background, this century old palace offers some of the best photo ops in Seoul. The Square means business. There is always something going on here. This time around, we saw a Won Buddhist demonstration against the THAAD missile defense system in Korea, a live football screening of the U-20 world cup in S.Korea, memorials for the Sewol ferry accident, and so much more. Gwanghwamun Square was also the location of the peaceful anti President Park protests in the Spring '17. Further down the road, you can visit the Cheonggyecheon Stream. A nice place to hangout with your family and friends. Many young people go on dates in this area and also here there are often street musicians and other small performances.
