The Eastern Palace was the longest-serving royal residential palace. A lot of its features are well preserved, and it was even proclaimed a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1997. Great stop to learn about the domestic life of Korean royals. There's a beautiful garden at the rear end, but we weren't able to visit. The complex is huge so be prepared to walk. (Oh and there's an entrance fee, I think it was KRW3000.)

While strolling around the Art Market, take a detour to visit the Royal Palace. Traditional balinese dances are held daily from 7pm to 9pm. 👍 While the dance show doesn't usually get overcrowded, be there earlier to get a good seat, as seating is entirely based on first-come, first-served. Admission: Free (admission to the show is separate and costs 100'000IDR)
