Hanbok rental for palace visits

Many visitors rent hanbok near Seoul's palaces. Wearing hanbok can qualify for free general admission at the royal palaces, but only when the outfit meets the official guideline. Before renting - Choose the palace first and check its current opening day, last admission and any reserved areas. - Compare rental shops on the full terms: what the price covers, when the time starts, extra items, deposit and the late-return fee. - For the admission benefit, wear a complete hanbok: a proper upper garment and a hanbok lower garment. Check the palace's current guideline. - Test walking, stairs and the weather in it before leaving the shop. - Save the shop's Korean name, location, phone number and the exact return time. At the palace, follow the staffed entrance's instructions; pay normal admission if staff say the outfit does not qualify.
