Complete Photo Archive of Gwanghwamun Square

I’m happy to present you with my most complete photo archive of Gwanghwamun Square. Gwanghwamun Square is a public area in the heart of historical and cultural Seoul, South Korea. It has a rich history being placed along Sejong-ro, which is the main street the king of Joseon would travel through as its north point is at Gyeongbokgung Palace. It used to be a road with offices of royal officials on each side. It is now a public space with statues of national icons and is surrounded by both government and cultural buildings. During my 10-year stay in South Korea, I frequently visited and photographed in this space and I’m proud to share with you my experience.

Back when I purchased my first DSLR camera, I took a trip to Seoul for my first big photography excursion. The above are some of the results of that first photography trip to Seoul.


Before concluding this article, I’d like to take the opportunity to tell you about a program that I am offering to photography learners, beginners, and aspiring photographers, free of charge. The goal is to help you improve your photography and develop your unique style. I will become a mentor to help guide you and give advice. We will also review your images and determine how to improve them. I call this The Photography Mentoring Program. You can sign up for the program here.
