When you come to another country is like compulsory to experience their culture. Same goes to South Korea, wearing Hanbok is a must in your to-do list when you visit the land of the morning calm. Hanbok is a Korean traditional attire, it being worn daily up until 100 years ago. Hanbok comes in various design and colors, reflecting the culture and lifestyle of its time. But nowadays it is only worn on special occasions or anniversaries.
In Korea, you can wear it by renting it at a nearby store that usually located near to the palace. The one that I wore cost me about 9000won for 2 hours, depends on the promotions. So, choose wisely since there's a store that charges you around 20,000won for 2 hours.
By the way, did you know if you wear hanbok you can enter the palace for FREE! you don't need to buy the admission ticket, the entrance ticket is about 3000won with just adding 6000won you can enjoy roaming around the palace wearing Hanbok.
The place that I rent is called King Hanbok located at Gyeongbukgung station line 3, Exit 4.
Photo trick in the Palace! Make sure to take a photo at the pillar, the results are awesome!
Have fun wearing Hanbok! and try to take a lot of photos. Trust me you won't regret it.
With love,
