Insadong and Gyeongbeouk Palace

When Chris got here, we decided to spend the first few weeks exploring Korea. One of the first weeks, we went to a great traditional part of Seoul called Insadong. They sell many homemade crafts there. After going there, we walked over to Gyeongbeouk Palace and explored the palace grounds and the national folk museum there.
