Hyangwonji (향원지) lake and Hyangwonjeong pavilion (향원정) in Gyeongbokgung (경복궁) Palace, Seoul (서울), South Korea (대한민국).

Located in the rear garden of Gyeongbokgung, Hyangwonji lake was originally built in 1456. It was reconstructed in 1873, when the Hyangwonjeong pavilion was added to the centre, and the Chwihyanggyo (취향교) bridge added to allow access to the pavilion.
