Jongmyo Shrine in Seoul

In Seoul there are a lot of shrines, I didn’t visit a lot, I think only visited this one because that day didn’t plan much.

Jongmyo Shrine was built in 1395 and it houses 49 tablets and 19 chambers of its past kings. Quite large per size. It also has the longest wooden buildings in East Asia.

Square in front of the shrine that you can see Nansam tower.

Korean uncles playing go in the park near the shrine.

I love spring time in Seoul.

They were preparing some culture performance that day, soon after my visit, they closed some part of the shrine, so I can’t go closer. Otherwise I could have taken more close-up pictures. I guess you will have to go to Seoul to admire this beauty.

Little garden.
