EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of Old Pavilion in the garden of the Chosun Hotel, now known as the Westin Chosun, in Seoul, South Korea. This photograph, taken circa 1910, offers a glimpse into the rich history of this beautiful country during the period of Japanese colonial rule. The Old Pavilion, with its intricately designed roof and ornate detailing, stands proudly in the lush garden, surrounded by vibrant greenery and tranquil water features. The serene atmosphere of the garden contrasts starkly with the bustling cityscape of Keijo (Seoul) in the background, providing a peaceful retreat for those fortunate enough to reside or visit the Chosun Hotel. The Chosun Hotel, a symbol of luxury and elegance during the early 20th century, was a popular destination for travelers and diplomats from around the world. Its beautiful gardens, including the Old Pavilion, were renowned for their beauty and were often featured in travel literature and postcards of the time. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the past, allowing us to imagine the sights, sounds, and sensations of a bygone era. The Old Pavilion in the garden of the Chosun Hotel stands as a testament to the enduring beauty and resilience of Korean history and culture.
