No not the music style but the sound of insects singing in the Deoksung Palace. This is a peaceful retreat in the centre of the noisy city and a fascinating place to visit. During the late afternoon and evening, we visited to the sounds of riot police and protesters playing their war games and this was a welcome change.
The National Museum, 6th largest in the world, had a wonderful collection. Our favourite was a ritual ewer from the Goryeo period. It had fine inlays of silver thread in the pattern of willows, a fishermen and wild ducks. We visited the entire collection.
