Located just past Gyeongbokgung Palace, the Blue House (Cheong Wa Dae) is the imposing official residence of South Korea’s president. This lovely complex is built mainly in the traditional South Korean architectural style and tours are a great way to learn about the country’s history and politics. Tours must be booked via online application at least three weeks in advance.
Visited The Blue House (Korean: 청와대; Hanja: 靑瓦臺; Cheong Wa Dae; literally "pavilion of blue tiles") is the executive office and official residence of the South Korean head of state, the President of South Korea, located in the Jongno district of the capital Seoul. It is painted in blue to show superiority and high ranking of the Korea Government. Lovely architecture and teh “fengsui” of the building is said to be facing the river water and behind is the mountain for good “Fengshui”.☺️☺️

Without a doubt this is a MUST SEE. The pictures we are showing here were a kind donation from the IARC Architects (the actual group that designed and made this amazing piece of Art). The building is absolutely gorgeous filled with outstanding materials, curves, bubbles, inner gardens and from the outside, although great and beautiful, does not represent the full impact that you receive whilst in the inside. As explained to us.... This place wants to be a future architecture that goes with the culture and terrain of the new Seoul citizens’ cultural emotion. And apparently the design of this building is based or inspired on mountains and valleys. Inspired on nature basically. As some of you may or may not know, the Seoul square is a symbolical center of Seoul and the only existing outside public space. As described; the concept design is a vertical extension of the Seoul square. The cultural facilities in this building are literally hanging. The Multi-level hanging terraces are linking to its culture facilities. Inside the stairs and the curved handling rods, that seem not to make any sense (it does). Inner wall attached and hanging gardens bring color, nature and live to this place. All in all we highly recommend this place as a true shocking piece of modernistic and sustainable architecture. The place is very spacious, it has a library also and a coffee shop available at the bottom of the place. Please come and enjoy the amazing Seoul City Hall. Special thanks to IARC Architects for the outstanding images (a lot better than ours).
