Nwijo (뉘조) is a Korean restaurant specializing in wild vegetable cuisine. The name ‘Nwijo’ means ‘the god of the silkworm,’ and likens wild vegetables to silkworms in that both can be eaten in their entirety. The restaurant serves original full-course Korean meals that are prepared using hundreds of kinds of wild vegetables, including special seasonal vegetables.
A typical full-course meal starts with delicious pumpkin porridge, followed by seasoned wild vegetables, root vegetable ssam (condiments wrapped in vegetable leaves), slices of boiled meat, and steamed lotus leaf-wrapped rice served with jjigae (Korean stew) and various side dishes. This kind of traditional feast is pleasing to both the eye and the palate and is topped off with sikhye (traditional sweet rice drink). Lunch specials are also available.

Construido en un principio como una residencia real, el palacio Changdeokgung se convirtió en el principal lugar de gobierno durante la dinastía Joseon después de que el palacio Gyeongbokgung fuese destruido durante la invasión japonesa del siglo XVI. Además de su relevancia política, el palacio es reconocido por su arquitectura y su bello entorno natural. En 1997 la Unesco designó al palacio Changdeokgung como Patrimonio Cultural de la Humanidad. Como parte del proyecto de creación de nuevos espacios, el Paseo Bajo la Luz de la Luna del Palacio Changdeokgung ofrece una oportunidad única de presenciar la belleza de los palacios coreanos. Este recorrido comienza en la puerta Donhwamun y continúa durante unas dos horas a través de los pabellones Injeongjeon y Nakseonjae, y el Jardín Huwon.

The Moon Guesthouse is situated near a number of interesting tourist destinations including Unhyeongung Palace (3min on foot), Bukchon Hanok Village (5min on foot), Changdeokgung Palace (5min on foot), and Changgyeonggung Palace (10min on foot). The guesthouse was named ‘moon’ (‘door’ in English) because it has many 176 doors and windows. Upon entering by the gate, visitors will see a ‘ㄷ’-shaped hanok building in the courtyard, in which a wooden bedstead and a table are placed. On the opposite of the hanok building there is a wall roofed with tiles engraved with Korean patterns such as deer, pine, turtle, etc. Flowers in the flowerbed lined up along the wall are in bloom and the bonsai are also well-kept in the house. Renovated and opened as a guesthouse in September 2011, Moon Guesthouse consists of a bonchae (main building) and a byeolchae (detached house). The rooms are decorated with red clay and hanji (traditional Korean paper handmade from mulberry trees), and have under-the-floor heating (ondol). Each room is equipped with an air-conditioner, and has a 40cm-thick layer of red clay over the ceiling for insulation, making the rooms cool in summer and warm in winter. The house has seven individual guestrooms and five modern bathrooms, but the entire building (bonchae or byeolchae) can be rented, too. In particular, the unhyeondang of the bonchae is very popular as it can be converted into one large space for special events, group workshops, etc. simply by opening all the sliding doors (Bunhapmun – Goryeo construction style). This room, which is decorated with a flower-patterned windscreen, a landscape painting, and calligraphy, has been used as a shooting location for various TV programs including KBS2’s TV reality program Man’s Qualification and its variety show The Human Condition. The guestrooms are also equipped with traditional furniture including a cabinet inlaid with mother-of-pearl. The guesthouse also provides a variety of experience programs from 11am to 3pm, including tea ceremony, wearing Hanbok (traditional Korean clothes), making kimchi and gochujang (red chili paste), playing a traditional musical instrument, making a rubbing of a stone inscription, calligraphy, drawing orchids on a fan, and so on. The house has about seventy hanbok and other clothing accessories, as well as a royal costume. Its calligraphy and drawing orchid programs are run directly by the owner, who used to work as a classical Chinese teacher at a high school.

Inaugurado en 1992 bajo el nombre de Museo Real, el actual Museo Nacional de los Palacios de Corea expone reliquias de la dinastía Joseon (1392-1910). Aquí se presentan cerca de 20.000 reliquias reales de los palacios Gyeongbokgung, Changdeokgung y Changgyeonggung así como las del santuario Jongmyo.
1. Símbolos y documentos reales - La dinastía Joseon defendía las ideas confucionistas, el rey estaba considerado como el soberano absoluto y la pareja real representaba, junto con la reina, los padres de todo el pueblo. Para realzar su autoridad, la dinastía hizo fabricar diversos símbolos reales.
2. Ritos ancestrales - Un rito ancestral se llevaba a cabo en el santuario que alberga las lápidas de los reyes y reinas de la dinastía Joseon. Este rito no era solo una ceremonia de culto de la familia real, sino también una fiesta de música y danza celebrada para desear la salvación y la prosperidad eterna del país.
3. Arquitectura del palacio – El palacio era una residencia para el rey y su familia y el centro de política y administración, donde el rey gobernaba el país. El centro del palacio de la dinastía Joseon, según los planos de arquitectura tradicional, comprendía Jeongjeon, el vestíbulo principal como centro de los acontecimientos del Estado y de conversaciones políticas y Pyeonjeon, la oficina del gobierno.
4. Ciencias de Joseon – Durante su primer periodo, la dinastía Joseon intentaba establecer la legitimidad de su fundación y enriquecer el país. Con el fin de cumplir estos ideales, la dinastía promovía como nunca antes dominios tales como la ciencia, la medicina y desarrollaba diversas armas para la defensa nacional.
5. Vida de la familia real – El rey y la reina eran las figuras simbólicas de la dinastía Joseon, pero eran también como el pueblo normal en su vida privada de palacio. El palacio estaba dividido en diferentes secciones: oficina del rey, residencia para la reina, despacho del príncipe heredero. Cada espacio contenía muebles apropiados, que estaban fabricados con materiales de alta calidad según estrictos criterios para la familia real.
