Seoul Gyeongbokgung Palace Private Photo Walk - Palace Storytelling Included

Walk Gyeongbokgung with a photographer
and capture your portraits

Meet your photographer in front of the National Palace Museum of Korea and spend about an hour strolling through Gyeongbokgung at a relaxed pace. Along the way you hear about the palace's history while the photographer finds the right poses and angles at each spot. It runs as a private group, so only your party joins the shoot.

Wearing a hanbok creates a more classic look, but any outfit is welcome. Props such as a traditional umbrella are available if you request them in advance.

Pose at Geunjeongjeon Hall and the royal living quarters

The first stop is Geunjeongjeon, the heart of the palace, where the wide courtyard and stone markers make a majestic backdrop that reflects the dignity of the Joseon royal court. Next, you move to the cozy living quarters once used by the king and queen for portraits framed by elegant architecture. The ginkgo tree in the back garden turns golden in autumn, adding a warm seasonal touch.

Capture calm moments by the pond and at Geoncheonggung

At the tranquil pond with its pavilion, you take serene photos with reflections on the water. At Geoncheonggung, once the king's private residence, the photographer frames shots that bring together royal architecture and its history.

Finish with final portraits at Gyeonghoeru Pavilion

The shoot wraps up at Gyeonghoeru, the royal pavilion surrounded by water that was once used to receive foreign envoys. Its reflection on the pond creates a dramatic backdrop for your final portraits. After the shoot, you receive up to 100 color-graded photos and 5 professionally edited photos.

※ Seasonal scenery such as autumn ginkgo leaves depends on the time of year and weather and is not guaranteed.
