Postcard Geunjeongjeon Hall |
Geunjeongjeon Hall is the main throne hall of Gyeongbokgung Palace. Originally built in 1395, Geunjeongjeon is now the largest and most formal hall at the palace. The name translate to “all affairs will be properly managed if Your Majesty demonstrates diligence.”
Like many other buildings in Korea, the original hall was burnt down during the Japanese occupation in 1592.The building seen today dates back to 1867, during the reconstruction of the palace. The building is constructed mostly of wood.
