Changgyeonggung

Changgyeonggung is a Joseon palace next to Changdeokgung, first built by King Sejong in 1418 for his retired father and enlarged in 1483. Its throne hall Myeongjeongjeon dates from 1616; under Japanese rule the grounds became a zoo and park, removed in 1983. The Chundangji pond and a glass greenhouse from 1909 stand in the garden.
