Bukchon meal

Down the Bukchon slope onto Samcheong-ro, then sit
This is the meal on the palace half-day. After it, do not walk Changdeokgung in depth, and do not continue to Ikseon for a second sitting.

Down from Bukchon
If this meal is already done, the slope below is only a pass-through — do not order a second cup, and do not go back into the palace for another deep visit.
