Yangcheon Hyanggyo Confucian Academy

Yangcheon Hyanggyo is a hyanggyo that handled Confucian education and rites during the Joseon period, about a 10-minute walk from Yangcheon Hyanggyo Station in Seoul. It is Seoul's only surviving hyanggyo, with a Daeseongjeon on the hill, a Myeongnyundang and Dongseojae below, and a hongsalmun at the entrance. It was built in 1411, the 11th year of King Taejong, merged into Gimpo Hyanggyo in 1914, separated again after liberation, and restoration work began in 1980. The interior of Daeseongjeon and the area behind the naesammun are closed, so visitors can only look at the buildings from the outside.
