Seoul's Old City Hall

Seoul's Old City Hall
In the capital city of Seoul, located in South Korea's northwest region, the Old City Hall is one of few buildings more than 30 years old. Much of the city was destroyed during the Korean War, which ended in a truce in 1953. Rebuilt afterwards, Seoul is now one of the world's largest and most cosmopolitan cities. It has served as a Korean capital for more than 500 years.
