There have been approximately 2.06 million paying visitors to Gyeongbokgung Palace in South Korea in 2023. This marked a gradual rehabilitation in visitor numbers, after the COVID-19 pandemic had caused numbers to drop from around 2.55 million in 2019 to around 0.52 million in 2020. The Gyeongbokgung Palace, originally built in 1395, was the main royal palace of the Joseon Dynasty, which ruled the Korean Peninsula from 1392 to 1897. It had been partly destroyed twice in history by Japanese forces, and now serves as one of the main attractions in the South Korean capital Seoul. Its premises also include the National Palace Museum and the National Folk Museum.
