Cheongwadae-ro 1, Jongno-gu, Seúl

Cheong Wa Dae (también conocida como Casa Azul) se compone del Edificio de la Oficina Principal, Yeongbingwan (Residencia de los Huéspedes de Estado), Chunchugwan (Pabellón de Primavera y Otoño), el parque Nokjiwon, Mugunghwa Dongsan y el santuario Chilgung. Las formas singularmente únicas de los edificios guardan un gran interés. Su estética sigue el estilo tradicional coreano. Las tejas azules y las suaves líneas curvas del techo del edificio principal son bellísimas. Aproximadamente 150.000 tejas componen el techo de Cheong Wa Dae, cada una de las cuales fueron cocidas al horno, en forma individual, de modo que son suficientemente fuertes como para ser usadas por más de un siglo. Mirando hacia la derecha encontrará Chunchugwan. El techo de Chunchugwan fue hecho de las tradicionales tejas de barro cocido y aquí es donde el presidente de la nación llevaba adelante sus conferencias de prensa. A la izquierda de la Oficina Principal, se halla Yeongbingwan. Esta construcción fue diseñada para alojar grandes conferencias y eventos oficiales durante las visitas de los invitados extranjeros. Luce muy lujosa y magnificente con sus 18 columnas de piedra que sustentan al edificio. Asimismo, puede pasear por el jardín Nokjiwon y el valle Mugunghwa. Nokjiwon es donde una sucesión de presidentes plantaron árboles en ocasiones memorables. Allí, hay un famoso árbol que tiene 310 años de edad. El valle Mugunghwa se encuentra lleno de flores de la rosa de Sharon, una fuente y una estatua del ave fénix, que conforman el lugar perfecto para la toma de fotografías. El lugar presenta un paisaje aún más bello entre julio y octubre, cuando las flores mugunghwa, la flor nacional, rompen sus pimpollos y cubren el jardín con su aroma. Todos los obsequios entregados al presidente se encuentran dispuestos aquí en exposición. Desde mayo de 2022, el predio de Cheong Wa Dae se encuentra abierto al público.

Dar un paseo por los alrededores de Cheong Wa Dae es un gran placer, por los paisajes atractivos y peculiares. Estos caminos de paseo se despliegan por un lado del palacio Gyeongbokgung pasando por Cheong Wa Dae y llegando al Parque de Samcheong-dong. El trayecto desde la puerta Dongmun del palacio Gyeongbokgung hasta Cheong Wa Dae es el recorrido más bello. Junto a un camino que se despliega por el centro, se encuentra el Muro de Piedra del Palacio Gyeongbokgung hacia la izquierda, las galerías de arte, y los edificios antiguos hacia la derecha. Junto al Muro de Piedra del Palacio Gyeongbokgung crecen árboles añejos que relajan y reconfortan a los que pasean junto a él. Gracias a sus coloridas hojas, el sendero se convierte en un paseo muy romántico durante la época de otoño. Cruzando la calle se encuentran la Galería Hyundai y el Museo Kumho, entre otros lugares artísticos, y también hay una variedad de cafeterías elegantes.
