Many buildings in Seoul are big, and serious. And the doors themselves are nothing special but there is a lot around them. An example of this is the War Memorial of Korea, commemorating the Korean War and those who died fighting it. A long stone staircase leads up to a wide mouth of windows.
In downtown Seoul there are other examples, including the Metropolitan Library
And the Seoul City Hall in Seoul Plaza.
Gyeongbokgung Palace, next to Gwanghwamun Square, is more urban than Changdeokgung, which I blogged about last week. It stands close to other places of business in the city. On our last day, we walked past the library and City Hall and across Gwanghwamun Square to get to this palace.
Some doors of Gyeongbokgung:
Even in the middle of the city, there was a part of the palace that was an oasis from the rest.
This post is for Norm 2.0’s Thursday Doors, a weekly feature allowing door lovers to come together to admire and share their favorite door photos from around the world. I’ll be sharing doors from my recent trip to East Asia for the next several Thursdays.

That first one does look like a mouth and I like the white door partway down on the right.
