Back with another palace. This time Deouksu palace. The palaces all sort of look the same, I know, but still. These pictures have fall leaves in them. And me. These were taken Sunday, 21/11/11.

An enactment of some kind. We got there a bit late and the announcer's accent was too thick to completely understand what was said.

My language partners girlfriend and me wearing hangbok, the traditional Korean (upper-class) dress. It's a much simplified version. And it's kind of fun being a touristy tourist.

Some trees do still have beautiful autumn leaves.

This is the courtyard in from of the king's meeting hall. The stones are markers for where persons of different rank are supposed to stand.

A stage. It's quite different from most of the architecture of Korean palaces and temples.

Road outside the palace. It's said that if you walk there with your significant other, you will break up.

Autumn in Korea
Well, we had the first snowfall of the year yesterday! Not much to brag about, but still... I also took some pictures of my campus yesterday. One of my teachers said that the campus' foliage is unusually pretty this year. It's nothing unique, but it is still very beautiful.
Taken about a week ago. The building to the right is the international studies building.
Same place yesterday.
On the right is the Korean language school and on the left the international dorms.
A little park on campus aka a short cut.
Very English? Me likes anyway. The foliage has mostly fallen off by now, though. It was very red about a week ago. ^^
Flowers blooming and leaves falling off the trees. Interesting.
The road to the main gate. It's looooong. Ok, maybe just long, but when you walk it enough times...
Same
Still the same.
I just found this tree fascinating.
Central library.
The library from a different angle.
A statue that is used as a meeting point/land mark. I don't know how I feel about it.
