집옥재, Royal study pavilion in Gyeongbokgung Palace, South Korea

The Jibokjae building features traditional Korean wooden architecture with curved roofs and intricate geometric patterns on doors and windows.

King Gojong constructed this edifice in 1891 to serve as a personal library and study room during the late Joseon Dynasty period.

The interior spaces contain traditional Korean furniture arrangements and designated areas for reading, writing, and scholarly discussions.

Located within the palace grounds, visitors can access Jibokjae through guided tours that operate from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM.

The building incorporates both Korean and Chinese architectural elements, reflecting the cross-cultural influences of late 19th century Korean design.
