Jeolla
Gamyoung
is
the
provincial
government
complex
that
oversaw
the
administrative,
judiciary,
and
military
affairs
of
the
Southwestern
region
(today’s
Jeollabuk-do,
Jeollanam-do,
and
even
Jeju-do
Island)
for
more
than
five
centuries.
The
original
site
used
to
be
much
larger,
but
last
October,
seven
key
buildings
of
the
complex
were
restored.Left
to
the
main
gate
is
a
beautiful
pine
tree
and
a
big
tablet
stone.
On
the
tablet
stone
is
written
“the
whole
country
is
dependent
on
the
supplies
from
the
Honam
(the
Southwestern
part
of
the
Korean
Peninsula),
if
not
for
Honam,
this
country
would
not
exist”.
This
is
a
quote
from
Admiral
Yi
Sun-sin,
one
of
the
most
respected
historic
figures
in
the
Korean
history,
famed
for
the
major
victories
against
the
Japanese
navy
during
the
Japanese
Invasion
of
Korea
(1592-1598)
and
one
of
the
most
respected
historic
figures
in
the
Korean
history.
If
you
have
time
kindly
visit
this
place
and
such
amazing
to
sit
down
a
while
and
take
a
breath
before
you
continue
walk
around
the
area.
Appreciate
history
and
you
will
understand
this
entire
life.
