Gyeongju's Essential Historical Treasures

Gyeongju served as the capital of the Silla Kingdom for nearly a millennium, leaving behind a dense concentration of architectural and cultural landmarks.

Explore the reconstructed Donggung Palace and Wolji Pond, and visit Bunhwangsa Temple, which dates back to the Old Silla era. These sites offer a direct look into ancient Korean engineering, Buddhist art, and royal funerary traditions.
