gyeongju museum


The Gyeongju National Museum, located in the historic city of Gyeongju in South Korea, is a treasure trove of the Silla Kingdom's heritage. Established in 1945, the museum houses a vast collection of artifacts from the Silla period, which was known for its remarkable cultural achievements. Visitors can explore the museum's five permanent galleries, which display items ranging from the Emille Bell to Silla crowns, and learn about the kingdom's history through both indoor exhibits and outdoor displays of stone sculptures and works. The museum's proximity to other historical sites like the royal tomb complex and Anapji Pond makes it a central part of the Gyeongju Historic Areas, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
