About
Changgyeonggung (Korean: 창경궁; Hanja: 昌慶宮) is a palace located in Seoul, South Korea. The palace was built in the mid-15th century by King Sejong for his father, Taejong. It was originally named "Suganggung", but it was renovated and enlarged in 1483 by King Seongjong, at which time it received its current name. Many structures were destroyed during the Imjin War, Japan's late 15th to 16th (1592) century attempts to conquer Korea and invade China.
