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.[1] The palace featured landscaped gardens, described as an" "unskillful" natural landscape" according to one source.[2]
The layout of the palace closely followed the Chinese government system and its Confucian principles.[1] 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.[3]
