On Saturday, I went to Seoul for the first time. We had Monday off for Korea's Independence Day. My coworker and I spent most of the weekend shopping since it was raining nearly the entire time. Nonetheless, we enjoyed shopping and got to explore many parts of the city. We also scored some good deals at H&M and Forever 21.
On Sunday, the weather cleared up a bit, so we decided to go to Gyeongbok Palace. We got there just in time for the changing of the royal guards. We really enjoyed the ceremony. We spent most of the afternoon exploring the vast palace grounds.
Gyeongbokgung is the main and largest palace of the "Five Grand Palaces" built in Seoul by the Joseon Dynasty and dates back to 1394.

We had a good time in Seoul . It’s a really nice city, but I much prefer living in Daegu because it’s cheaper, smaller, and feels a bit more traditional.
