Trip to Korea: Day 3

Day 3. Walking through the city on my way to see the old palaces.



A small palace that serves as a tomb to kings and queens of yester years smack in the middle of Seoul and next to a huge marketplace.



Another big palace Changdeokgung. A guide who spoke Korean was quite vivid and interesting, he manipulated the crowd like a magician.



A very quiet place in Changdeokgung palace. Would be a great place for a quiet Sunday afternoon, but one cannot enter the palace at will, only as part of a tour. Guards heckle everyone who strays off the tour.




A beauftiful traffic woman who regulated cars and people with such grace, bowing with utmost respect after each turn. Mesmerizing!
