창덕궁 후원 / 서울에 온지 13년이나 지났지만, 한번도 찾아 보지 않았던 곳.
하지만 외국인을 위한 관광루트를 찾다가 알게 된 곳.
한번 가보니, 창덕궁 후원 만큼 외국인에게 소개시켜 주기 좋은 곳은 없는 듯.
혹시 더 좋은 곳 아시는 분 있으면 가르쳐 주세요. ^^:
Even though I am Korean, I have been to Secret Garden of Changdeokgung two times.
However, I really recommend you to visit this Secret Garden when you visit to Korea.
If you decide to go there then surely go there in autumn season.
Because there will be beautiful autumn colors!
FYI, I attached the site link below.
http://eng.cdg.go.kr/main/main.htm
You have to book Secret Garden tour in the site if you want to enter into it.
A guide introduce you short story about Chosun dynasty and construction culture and give you explanation for each building.
When you go there you can feel as like you becoming a King!!

I think above place is most beautiful place in Secret Garden, sorry to say, a season is March so that there are no color leaps except pine treee leaps. that is why I recommend you to visit there in Autumn.
Anyway, you can see Korean king's favorate garden which allowed to enter royal family only.
A guide told us that King did fishing there!

However, one thing really good visiting Secer Garden in March is what you can see really deep blue sky like above picture! If your country has normally cloud sky!
