Tucked behind the walls of Changdeokgung lies one of Seoul’s most breathtaking autumn secrets — the Huwon (Secret Garden). 🍁 Once reserved for Joseon kings and scholars, this 15-hectare garden was designed to exist in harmony with nature — reflecting ponds, pavilions, and trees that have stood here for centuries. During peak foliage, the garden turns into a living painting — scarlet maples, golden ginkgo, and reflections so perfect they almost don’t look real. ✨ 👉 Entry is by guided tour only, so make sure to book online in advance or arrive early to secure your ticket. 📍Changdeokgung Palace, Jongno-gu, Seoul 🍂 Want to explore more hidden foliage spots around Seoul?
