Anhak Palace

The Anhak Palace is a royal residence of the Goguryeo kingdom that was built in 427 AD. It is located in Taesong-guyok, Pyongyang, North Korea. The palace featured landscaped gardens, described as an "unskillful natural landscape" according to one source.

The layout of the palace closely followed the Chinese government system and its Confucian principles. The palace was built after the transfer of the capital to Pyeongyang, during which political groups which were familiar with Chinese culture become a new bureaucratic group under the King's patronage.
