Somerset Palace Seoul’s name came from the tranquil and picturesque Gyeongbok Palace just across the street, which was the kings’ palace during the Joseon Kingdom (1392-1910). Since the Joseon period, the area has been the center of the country’s diplomacy, business and finance.

Leisure districts are also nearby within walking distance. Restaurants, shopping arcades as well as entertainment and cultural outlets are easily accessible, including Insa-dong, Samcheong-dong, Jongno, Gwanghwamun, Cheonggye and Seoul squares, and the Sejong Center for the Performing Arts.
