It is the first permanent market in Korea, established in 1905. Originally, Gwangjang Market was planned to be built by covering the area between Gwanggyo (wide bridge) and Janggyo (long bridge), so it was named Gwangjang Market, meaning “wide and long,” after the first letters of the bridge names. However, when it was moved to Baeogae, the Korean pronunciation of the previous name was kept, but the meaning of “widely gathering and preserving” was newly added, and it became the current Gwangjang (廣藏) Market. Now, more than 100 years later, it has become a comprehensive market boasting a considerable transaction volume. Also, the busiest place in Gwangjang Market is the food market formed on the street where Dongmun, Buk 2 Gate, and Nam 1 Gate meet. The food market of Gwangjang Market attracts all ages, from students, middle-aged people, and the elderly. It is currently designated as a world tourist course, and is famous as a transit point for many foreign tourists traveling to Korea.

Changgyeonggung Palace is the third palace built during the Joseon Dynasty, following Gyeongbokgung Palace and Changdeokgung Palace. Since the early days of the Joseon Dynasty, the two-palace system was in place, with Gyeongbokgung Palace as the main palace and Changdeokgung Palace as the auxiliary palace. However, the kings of the past preferred to reside in Changdeokgung Palace over Gyeongbokgung Palace, and as the royal family grew, the living space in Changdeokgung Palace gradually became cramped. Accordingly, King Seongjong built Changgyeonggung Palace next to Changdeokgung Palace so that the three queens of the royal family, including Queen Jeonghui, wife of King Sejo, Queen Ansun, wife of King Yejong, and Queen Sohye, wife of King Deokjong, could live comfortably. The name at the time was Suganggung Palace, meaning longevity and peace.
