- overview
Yangcheonhyanggyo Local Confucian School is the only educational institution of the Joseon dynasty remaining in Seoul, and as such was designated Seoul Monument No. 8. Built in the 12th year of Joseon King Taejong (1411), the old school was entirely restored in 1981. There are eight buildings in the premises, including Daeseongjeon Hall, Myeongnyundang Lecture Hall, and Jeonsacheong Hall to name a few. A national ritual service for Confucius is held here twice a year: once in spring and once in fall. Also, various programs are offered to teach Chinese characters, calligraphy, or Oriental painting to regular citizens, as well as elementary, junior, and high school students.
