- Outdoors Activities travel tip
- City center
The place is a museum, but people actually live in the houses, really! Wear traditional clothes, use the old tools and live in the old way, it's almost unbelievable in a city like Seoul.
You can eat traditional Korean food (and only that), see weddings held there (some are real, some are for the filmings). There are workshops with the traditional crafts everywhere and it's like you are in a different era.
Address:
107 Pora-ri, Kihung-up, Yong-in-shi, Kyonggi-do, Seoul
Opening Hours:
09:00am to 17:00pm, all year.
