The Palace embraces the Museum of Fine Arts (left communed building behind a large roof) besides many large and small buildings of the palace itself. Built in 1902, but rebuilt four years later after it had been burnt down. It was a walled compound of palaces in Seoul that was inhabited by members of Korea's royal family during the Joseon monarchy until the annexation of Korea by Japan in 1910.
