Starting March 7, 2025, Changgyeonggung Palace offers Moonlight Lotus Show, an enchanting media art show set against the serene backdrop of Chundangji Pond. Following its enthusiastic reception as a special program at last year’s Royal Culture Festival, it has become a regular night tour program, inviting visitors to witness the magical fusion of digital media art, history, and nature. 

The event features eight captivating themes, showcasing the palace’s scenery through stunning media art facades. The eight themes include two special seasonal shows, which are scheduled to be held during spring and autumn, celebrating the beautiful nature and night view of the palace. Visitors can immerse themselves in the stories of the Joseon period and appreciate a contemporary interpretation of dancheong (traditional colors of Korean architecture) through the “Moonlight Lotus” media art show at Large Chundangji Pond, the upper half of the pond. At Small Chungdangji Pond, the lower side of the pond, the “Water’s Breath” media art show creates a mesmerizing interplay of light and water, walking visitors through the joy and sorrows of the palace. The seasonal shows are exclusively available from April 15 to May 18 in spring and from September 10 to November 8 in autumn. 

With Changgyeonggung Moonlight Lotus Show becoming a regular event, it now joins the Gyeongbokgung Starlight Tour, Changdeokgung Moonlight Tour, and Deoksugung Seokjojeon at Night, completing the night tour programs of the four main palaces of Seoul. 
Gyeongbokgung Starlight Tour: Experience the royal court cuisine and watch traditional performances
Changdeokgung Moonlight Tour: Discover the beautiful scenery of Changdeokgung Palace with a guided tour
Deoksugung Seokjojeon at Night: Enjoy coffee while experiencing the daily life of the imperial family of Korea
