The following photos are my contribution to Thursday Doors, a door-lovers group hosted by Norm Frampton.

It was a treat and a delight to be taken by my daughter on a four-day getaway to Seoul, Korea. We romped through local markets, toured historical sites, ate plentiful amounts of delicious food, got lost a time or two, laughed a lot, visited a good friend, and simply enjoyed ourselves!
The Gyeongbokgung Palace in Seoul, Korea was our first historical site to visit. The palace is known as the “Palace of Shining Happiness.” It was built in 1395, destroyed during the Japanese invasion in 1592-1598, and restored in 1852-1919.
We wandered through several gates, along stone and sand walkways, and among the history-soaked buildings of the palace compound.
The sky was blue, the company was wonderful, and the doors were big and incredible!
Kamsahamnida (thank you) for stopping by. If you would like to see more doors from all around the globe, visit Norm’s. Have a nice weekend!

The green and rusty-red appears to be a theme throughout this building.
I like the 4th photo looking through the doorway to the modern buildings in the distance. I find these kinds of photos interesting when the old and new are intermixed.

I was focused on the door and didn’t notice that. Great eye! I too like photos of the old and new intermixed. Thanks for stopping by, Joanne. =)
