    To see Cheongwadae, visitors must join a tour (Korean language only; passports required), which is free and lasts 80 minutes, but does not venture inside any important buildings and only visits the palatial grounds and Chilgung - small locked shrines that contain the spirit tablets of seven royal concubines whose sons became kings during the Joseon dynasty.

    Tour times vary and you must pre-book online and pick up your tickets at the ticket booth (; 09:00 - 15:00 tour days) in Gyeongbokgung. A tour bus takes you the short distance from the car park to Cheongwadae.
