Saemunan-ro 45, Jongno-gu, Seúl.
Hacia finales de la época de Joseon, el palacio Gyeonghuigung fue considerado como un palacio secundario del monarca; y por su ubicación, hacia el oeste (seo, en coreano) de Seúl, en ocasiones fue nombrado como Seogwol (Palacio del Oeste).
El palacio secundario era el lugar en donde el rey se refugiaba en momentos de emergencia. Desde Injo a Cheoljong, aproximadamente 10 reyes de la dinastía Joseon pasaron algún momento de sus vidas en este palacio. Fue construido respetando el relieve de las montañas que lo rodeaban, por lo que posee una belleza tradicional en su arquitectura y un gran significado histórico. Hubo tiempos en los que tenía una dimensión enorme, por lo que se tuvo que levantar un puente con forma de arco para conectarlo con el palacio Deoksugung. Para la audiencia real, estaban los edificios Sungjeongjeon y Jajeongjeon; y como cuartos privados, los edificios Yungbokjeon y Hoesangjeon. Sumaban un total de aproximadamente 100 edificios de distinto tamaño dentro del palacio. Sin embargo, gran parte del palacio fue derrumbada y dañada por la invasión japonesa de 1908.
Hoy en día, la puerta principal del palacio, Heunghwamun, es utilizada como la puerta de acceso al Hotel Shilla.
Cerca del palacio Gyeonghuigung se encuentra el Museo de Historia de Seúl, la calle Jeongdong y la siempre abarrotada calle Jong-ro. Una vez que haya recorrido Gyeonghuigung, puede cruzar la calle Jeongdong y caminar hacia el palacio Deoksugung. El camino del muro de piedra del palacio Deoksugung está considerado como uno de los más elegantes de la ciudad.
