Answer pack

Rainy day

Deoksugung is mainly an outdoor palace, but it has several indoor exhibition halls that work as rain shelters.

  • Place type: palace attraction; main grounds are outdoor
  • Indoor halls open during the day: Seokjojeon, Dondeokjeon, Jungmyeongjeon
  • General visiting hours 09:00–21:00 (last entry 20:00)
  • Closed Mondays (with public-holiday exceptions)
  • No on-site parking — relevant if arriving in the rain
  • Step-free route, wheelchair and stroller accessible

Based on place_type (attraction/palace) and operating.open_hours_raw which lists indoor exhibition halls; experience_attributes.indoor_outdoor and rain_safe are null, so the indoor/outdoor characterization is inferred from the listed hall names rather than an explicit rain-safe flag.
