Changdeokgung’s connection to its landscape becomes easy to notice in autumn. Maple clusters behind the main hall and the ginkgo line near the inner quarters shift most clearly from late October to early November. This is the ideal time to walk toward the Secret Garden gate, where the scene changes from structured courtyards to wooded slopes. Slow down and explore the quieter corners of the grounds.
