Hyangchon Cultural Center
Local history museum
👍 Public transportation is good in the city. It is close to getting off at Daegu Subway Station Line 1 or Dongseongro Station. The buildings are old because it is an old town, but it has its own excitement. The Hyangchon Cultural Center is a small building, but it offers a variety of things to see a...

Seoul Urban Life Museum
Local history museum
👍👍 Seodaemun Prison is the only Japanese-style wooden building in existence. Built in 1923, it is the place where patriots across the country were sentenced to death and imprisoned after the transfer. The prison was a place where prisoners were kept, but those who had suffered all sorts of hardships at...

Dokdo Museum Seoul
Local history museum
👍 I am not going to comment here on the merits or demerits of Dokdo's claims. However, I think it is admirable that a facility like this is built in the city center and is being promoted. Japan also claims that it is its own territory, but it is unclear whether they are really passionate about it. Ap...

Hanam Museum of History
Local history museum
👍👍 음 사실 별기대 안함. 역사박물관이 다 거기서 거기니까... 어린이 체험관을 기대하고 갔는데 여기보다는 이성산성 기획전시(3층) 해놓은게 너무 재미있었음. 아이들이 아주 신기해하고... 한쪽 벽면이 다 화면인데 화면에 하남역사에 관련된 단어들이 있고 터치를 하면 터치를 하면 ox퀴즈부터 퍼즐 맞추기 등을 이용해...

가야산역사신화테마관
Local history museum
👍👍 가야산국립공원 고지대에 위치합니다. 역시나 제일중요한것은 주차장일텐데 아주 넓게 잘 되어 있습니다. 제가 방문했던 시기는 벚꽃이 모두 끝난 무렵인데, 이곳은 고지대라 추워서그런지 벚꽃이 절정에 달한듯 만개 하였습니다. ㅎㅎ 바람이 불면 벚꽃눈이 떨어져서 정말 좋았습니다. 원래는 식물원을 보기 위해...
