One of my favorite museums on our trip was the Cultural Heritage Museum. We had a wonderful elderly gentleman give us a guide tour of the last bit of the museum, just because we looked interested and he liked the artifacts!
I wish I knew more about the history and the art history of Korea — so this page is a work in progress. I am posting some of my favorite objects as thumbnails. As I get the research done, I will fill in captions and historical information.
