What you can expect

Immerse yourself in Korean Folk Village, a living exhibition of history and culture, on this morning tour. Explore the famous museum with your experienced guide, browse collections of centuries-old artifacts, and indulge in unique local flavors from different regions across the country.

Korean Folk Village encompasses more than 260 traditional houses and contains fascinating artifacts from the Joseon Dynasty, which ruled Korea for more than 500 years. Marvel at the wide assortment of residential buildings, workshops, and customs preserved by the local people. See demonstrations of traditional blacksmithing, bamboo crafts, pottery, cotton looms, and more.

Next, visit the Hwaseong Fortress, a monumental wall built in 1794 which circles the city of Suwon. Take out your camera and snap some shots of the massive historical structure. The building includes King Jeongjo's Haenggung Palace which houses a shelter where the king was said to have rested during war periods.

After finishing tour, drop off place will be at Myeongdong station.
