Seoul Walk: Gwanghwamun Square (광화문광장), @Line 5 - Seoul, South Korea [4K]
If you are on the lookout for some arts and culture in Seoul, you have probably heard of the Gwanghwamun Square. The Gwanghwamun is how the main gate to Seoul's biggest palace - the Gyeongbokgung Palace - is called. But even outside the palace walls, there are many great things to see!
Overseen by great King Sejong, the inventor of the Korean Script Hangul, the Gwanghwamun Square boasts many tall public buildings at its sides. There is the music conservatory, the history museum, the American embassy - and beneath the ground one of the largest book shopping centers in Seoul - the Kyobo Book Store. But also the Gyeongbokgung Palace, at the head of the Gwanghwamun Square, is worth a visit all on its own. Fitted with the amazing view of mountains in the background, this century old palace offers some of the best photo ops in Seoul.
The Square means business. There is always something going on here. This time around, we saw a Won Buddhist demonstration against the THAAD missile defense system in Korea, a live football screening of the U-20 world cup in S.Korea, memorials for the Sewol ferry accident, and so much more. Gwanghwamun Square was also the location of the peaceful anti President Park protests in the Spring '17.
Further down the road, you can visit the Cheonggyecheon Stream. A nice place to hangout with your family and friends. Many young people go on dates in this area and also here there are often street musicians and other small performances.

【4K】광화문광장 Gwanghwamun Square walk in Seoul ????????
On August 1st, 2009, the redesigned Gwanghwamun Square opened to the public. With the inauguration of the square, Sejong-ro, located at the center of the 600-year-old historic city of Seoul, was transformed into a human-centered space that harmonizes with the beautiful scenery of Gyeongbokgung Palace and Bukaksan Mountain.
The close to 20,000m2 Gwanghwamun Square is located at the center of Sejong-ro which connects Gwanghwamun Gate and Cheonggye Square. The square is divided into the sections, “Recovering the History of Gwanghwamun Gate Plaza,” “Reenacting Yukjo Street Plaza,” “Korea Main Plaza,” “Civil Participation Urban Culture Plaza,” “Downtown Plaza” and “Cheonggyecheon Stream Connector.”
The “Recovering the History of Gwanghwamun Gate Plaza” section is at the entrance of the plaza, where a stone base called Woldae and a statue of Haetae, a mythical unicorn-lion that is said to protect palaces from fire, have been restored. Near Sejong-ro Park is “Reenacting Yukjo Street Plaza” where Yukjo Street, the main street of old Seoul (Formally known as Hanyang) was recreated. On the side is also a miniature depiction of Yukjo Street.
The Statue of King Sejong the Great has been relocated in the “Korea Main Plaza” where Hangeul, the Korean alphabet, is projected on a fountain water screen. Between the Sejong Center for the Performing Arts and the Statue of Admiral Yi Sun-Shin is the “Civil Participation Urban Culture Plaza” with a range of attractions and services including accommodation facilities for visitors, exhibition halls, elevators, a meeting plaza, and art galleries.
“Downtown Plaza,” located near the Statue of Admiral Yi Sun-Shin, symbolizes Sejong-ro. The Square has water facilities such as a pond and pop-jet fountains. The “Cheonggyecheon Stream Connector” functions as a connecting walking path between Cheonggyecheon Stream and Gyeongbokgung Palace.
In addition, there is the “Memorial Waterway”, flowing underground water, which goes from both Gyeongbokgung and Gwanghwamun subway stations to Cheonggyecheon Stream. Plus, behind the Statue of Admiral Yi Sun-Shin is “Sunken Square” which connects Gwanghwamun subway station and the ground allowing people to access the Square more easily.
Two statues of Admiral Yi Sun-Shin and Sejong the Great, who are great and influential people in Korean history, are situated at Gwanghwamun Square where the beatification ceremony will take place. Visitors can see “Waterways of History” and “King Sejong Story” exhibitions, the latter of which highlights the achievements of King Sejong and history of Hangeul.

Seoul Walk | Gwanghwamun Gate
Seoul, South Korea
Founded in 1395 by the first king of the Joseon Dynasty, Gwanghwamun is the main gate of Gyeongbukgung Palace.
Roughly meaning “may the light of enlightenment blanket the world,” the name symbolizes the resounding dedication that the people of the Joseon Dynasty had in creating a new dynasty.
Constructed solely out of granite, its center is an entrance that resembles a rainbow, called Hongyemun Gate. Above that is a gate tower.
Gwanghwamun Gate holds a painful memory in Korean history.
During the Japanese occupation of Korea, in order to dampen the spirits of the Korean citizens, the Japanese governing general destroyed the gate and built his own government building.
The present appearance of the gate was completed in 1968 when it was rebuilt using concrete, and it’s location is about 10m behind the original spot.
Though Gwanghwamun Gate is the most beautiful of the five palace gates, it was not designated by the Korean government as a national treasure because it was built purely of concrete.
The government is now in the process of removing the Japanese building and restoring the palace.
Gwanghwamun Gate has its name written on a sign placed over the gate, and it was personally written by then-president Park Jeong-Hui.
On either side of the gate you can see a statue of Haetae facing south.
Haetae is a mythical unicorn-lion that is said to protect palaces from fire.
