Seoul · Historic Sites

The Gyeonggi Provincial Government Office Site is located around Seodaemun Station in Seoul. It was the former site of the government office that administered all of Gyeonggi Province during the Joseon Dynasty, roughly equivalent to the present-day Gyeonggi Provincial Office. Today, most of the original site is occupied by modern buildings such as D Tower and Seoul Red Cross Hospital, with only a memorial stone by the roadside and a small underground archaeological exhibition hall remaining to trace the transformation of Seoul from the Joseon period to the modern era.
