On this full-day tour, admire the UNESCO World Heritage Sites of Changdeokgung Palace and Jongmyo Royal Shrine, and Suwon Hwaseong Fortress. Start in Seoul and visit Jongmyo, a royal shrine with the ancestral tablets of Joseon dynasty's royal family. Next, you will visit the Changdeokgung Palace, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. From there, you will go to the beautiful Huwon garden, which is often called as Secret Garden as it is used for leisurely strolls only by royal family members. Later, stop at another World Heritage Site, Hwaseong Fortress in Suwon, and be amazed at the construction of the wall, which is believed to have been constructed scientifically using seokjae and jeondol (bricks). Get an up-close view of spaces between the bricks that are just big enough to fire guns, arrows, or long spears.
