NoTips from parents who've been
💡 A good place to pause during a Gwanghwamun trip. You can rest with the stroller right beside you.
💡 Sejong Art Garden is just in front of the pavilion, which makes a short walk with a child.
💡 There is shade, so it works as a break from the sun in summer.
Tips for going with kids
💡 A natural way to show a child traditional Korean architecture — look at the tiled roof and wooden pillars together.
💡 Sit in the pavilion and you can photograph Bugaksan and Sejong Center together.
💡 It suits a 10-20 minute break on a walk rather than a place to spend a long time.
Travelling in Korea
💡 Jeokseonjeong was built from reclaimed materials taken from old hanok houses.
💡 The roof detailing follows the traditional style of Hyangwonjeong at Gyeongbokgung and Buyongjeong at Changdeokgung.
