Monday is the most common closing day in Korea: 332 of the 1,320 places we track close every Monday, including 242 museums. In Seoul that is 73 places. Plan palaces and museums for another day — or pick from the places below that stay open.

Gyeongbokgung Palace and Jongmyo Shrine close on Tuesdays, so they are open on Mondays; Changdeokgung, Changgyeonggung and Deoksugung close on Mondays. If a Monday is a public holiday, several of them open and close on the next business day instead — our pages already account for that.
