KOREA HERITAGE SERVICE [KHS]

The Korea Heritage Digital Service is a service that releases various national heritage data, so that companies, regions, and the public can easily find high-quality national heritage data. It is expected to be of great help to the public as well as companies, local governments, universities and research institutes by releasing national heritage data such as 3D data, drawings, photos, reports and videos that are difficult for the public to access.

You can easily access the data by using conditional search functions such as designated items, regions, eras and production years, and also can easily check information such as 3D scanned videos and web VR contents provided by Korea Heritage Service through services such as '3D Asset' and 'Theme Contents'.

Gyeongbokgung Palace 경복궁

Gyeongbokgung Palace, the main palace in the Joseon Dynasty, was built after King Taejo, founder of the Joseon Dynasty. He had the capital moved to Hanyang during the fourth year of his reign (1395). Its name, literally meaning “great fortune,” originated with a phrase of Sigyeong (Book of Songs), quoted by Jeong Do-jeon, an eminent scholar in the Joseon Dynasty: "I've already drunk and have been full with virtue, so I will help you get great fortune in my late year as a man of virtue.”

Donggung(the East Palace) 동궁 is the official residence of the crown princes of the Joseon Dynasty. The crown prince's residence was located on a site in the eastern part of the royal palace to represent the fact that a crown prince was destined to ascend to the throne like the sun rising from the east, hence its name. This building was destroyed during the Japanese Invasion in 1592, and was not rebuilt until 1867. The restored palace building was

demolished by the Japanese colonial authority under the pretext that the Korean Product Promotion Fair would be held in the grounds of Gyeongbokgung.

The Donggung area which included Jaseondang Building and Bihyeongak Building was reconstructed in 1999, and Gyejodang Building reconstructed in 2023 was added to the East Palace.
