Rent a Hanbok in Seoul near Gyeongbokgung, Changdeokgung, & More

Seoul’s charm lies in its ability to preserve tradition. While the capital dazzles with its advanced cityscape, there’s no denying that their historical attractions maintain high popularity up to this day. Just consider your travel plans: you’re probably thinking of visiting at least one modern site like the N Seoul Tower or Leeum Samsung Museum of Art, but I’m almost sure that you’re also considering Gyeongbokgung or Bukchon Hanok Village. If I’m right, then I’d highly recommend that you wear a hanbok when you visit a historical attraction. Not only will you gain the fun experience of wearing the traditional Korean wear (which makes for great portraits, by the way!), you’ll also get free entrance to Seoul’s palaces! Here are the hanbok rentals near Gyeongbokgung, Changdeokgung, Changgyeonggung, and more that you can visit:
