Jongmyo Shrine

The royal ancestral temple during the Joseon Dynasty, this is where the kings would perform sacrificial rituals in honor of their ancestors. Certainly, the most famous shrine devoted to the royal family members of Korean dynasties. The grounds are a bit more walker-friendly than some of the palaces, admission is cheaper, and they also have some interactive equipment available to learn about the rituals and ceremonies used to treat deceased royal family members, but the interior of the shrine buildings is off-limits to the public. The Jongmyo Shrine is a {{UNESCO}}. The Jongmyo Jerye ceremony, which is still led by the head of the former royal family, is held here on the first Sunday of May every year, during which there will be traditional Korean performances as part of the ceremony, and the only time when the public can view (but not enter) the interior of the shrine buildings. English guided tours at 10:00, 12:00, 14:00, 16:00.
