Gyeongju



Gyeongju (慶州, 경주) lies in the far southeastern corner of North Gyeongsang Province in Korea. It was the capital of the ancient kingdom of Silla. Korean government maintains this place for its original. Today Gyeongju is a typical medium-sized city sharing the economic, demographic, and social trends that have shaped modern South Korean culture.
Gyeongju has many national heritage with modern facilities. I didn't see the building high than 3 floors. We visited there in the season of autumn. Traditional houses, autumnal colours and dou fu ( bean curd) villages made it fill with romantic image. It's famous and worth to sightsee and to know more about Korea.
