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.”

Hamhwadang, Gyeongbokgung Palace 함화당

Jipgyeongdang and Hamhwadang did not exist until the reconstruction of Gyeongbokgung Palace in the 1860s. Then, in the 1890s, Chunhuidang and Bogwangdang, which were originally located there, were torn down and the newly built Jipgyeongdang and Hamhwadang were built. During the Japanese colonial period, the Joseon Government-General Museum, built on the site of Donggung Palace, was left undismantled to be used as an office, but the pavilion and gates around the palace were torn down. Afterwards, the haenggak was restored in the late 2000s and is still there today. Hamhwadang and Jipgyeongdang are connected by a hallway, and there is a record that King Gojong met foreign envoys here while he was staying at Geoncheong Palace.
