[Korea] Hwaseong Fortress in Suwon / Mireuksa Temple Site in Iksan [UNESCO World Heritage Site]

 


1. Hwaseong Fortress in Suwon

Suwon, which was promoted to Dohobu during the reign of King Taejong of the Joseon Dynasty, was one of the four camps of Hansung. Centering on Hanyang, camps were set up in Gwangju, Ganghwa, Suwon, and Kaesong in the east-west, north-south directions to protect the capital, Hanyang. Hwaseong Fortress, which protects the Suwon land, has been listed as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, increasing its historical value. In addition, various permanent performances are held, and the Suwon Hwaseong Cultural Festival is held every fall to promote Suwon Hwaseong.


Hwaseong Fortress (historic site), built around Paldalsan Mountain (143m), has a total length of 5,700m. Mars is not just a 'star'. Along with its historical meaning, it is an architecturally valuable cultural heritage. The construction of Hwaseong Fortress originated from King Jeongjo's Korean traditional medicine and filial piety. On May 21, 1762, the 38th year of King Yeongjo's reign, Crown Prince Sado died in eight days after being trapped in the middle of the summer due to a party dispute. Prince Sado's son, Jeongjo, was 11 years old at the time. Jeongjo, who succeeded his grandfather King Yeongjo, moved the tomb from Baebongsan Mountain in Yangju (now Jeonnong-dong, Seoul) to Suwon Hwasan Mountain and built the fortress from January 18 to September 20 to comfort his father's late marriage.


Hwaseong Fortress is the most complete form of the Joseon fortress system. It also occupies the most important proportion in the history of the development of Korean fortresses. This castle was built using only the advantages of stone castle and Saturn. The ancestors, who were obsessed with the construction of Hwaseong Fortress, also modeled after Chinese and Western construction techniques to compensate for the weaknesses of the Korean fortress. Matters related to this castle are recorded in detail in the "Hwaseong Sanctuary Uigwe". Dasan Jeong Yak-yong is an indispensable figure in terms of Hwaseong's architecture. Dasan, who was 30 years old at the time, designed a new fortress by referring to 5,000 volumes of "Gogeum Book Collection" imported from China, after reading high-tech books provided in the royal library Gyujanggak. Jeong Yak-yong also devised a crane. Records show that there were 48 facilities in the castle, including the castle gate, but 41 facilities remain, including those currently restored. The buildings 200 years ago, including the treasure Paldalmun Gate, the highest Seojangdae among the facilities surrounding Paldalsan Mountain, Namporu Pavilion built to hide the canvas and shoot at the enemy, and Banghwasuryujeong Pavilion full of the atmosphere of ancestors, are full of Joseon's cultural scent. Hwaseong Fortress was registered as a World Heritage Site along with Changdeokgung Palace at the UNESCO World Heritage Committee held in Naples, Italy on December 4, 1997.


The founding of Mireuksa Temple, the largest Buddhist temple in Baekje, is recorded in the History of the Three Kingdoms. Madong, who became a king after marrying Princess Seonhwa of Silla, or King Mu (the 30th King of Baekje, 600-641), was visiting the place name Buddhist monk of Sajasa Temple in Yonghwasan Mountain (now Mireuksan Mountain) with Princess Seonhwa. At that time, Mireuk Samjon suddenly appeared in the pond, and this led to the establishment of Mireuksa Temple. It is said that Jeon (Geumdang), Tap, and Nangmu (Hwarang) were built for the Three Kingdoms. On the other hand, there is an opinion that the foundation of Mireuksa Temple may have had a political purpose as well as the faith of King Mu and Princess Seonhwa. In other words, it is presumed that Mireuksa Temple was built here in Geumma, the center of Mahan forces, to expand Baekje's national power. It is presumed that the level of various cultures such as architecture and crafts of Baekje was at the highest level to build Mireuksa Temple, the largest temple of Baekje, and the techniques of the Three Kingdoms were gathered at that time, as shown in the records of Samguk Yusa that King Jinpyeong of Silla sent Baekgong. It is clear that Mireuksa Temple was the center of the Mireuksa faith in Baekje Buddhism, and it contrasts with Hwangnyongsa Temple, the largest Buddhist temple in Silla, being the center of Hwaeom Thought. Unlike Hwangnyongsa Temple, which is a three-goldang style, Mireuksa Temple is a three-goldang style garam arrangement.Hwangnyongsa Temple embodies Hwaeom ideology with the king at the peak, and Mireuksa Temple embodies Maitreya ideology in Garam. Mireuksa Temple is based on the belief that it will lead the general public to the Yonghwa world.


2. Mireuksa Temple Site in Iksan

* Another relic of Mireuksa Temple Site, the Stone Pagoda of Mireuksa Temple Site and Dangganjiji *

There are two relics in Mireuksa Temple Site, adding to the attractions. One is the stone pagoda of Mireuksa Temple Site, and the other is the Dangganjiji of Mireuksa Temple Site. The stone pagoda of Mireuksa Temple Site is a national treasure and is currently 14.24m high and is the best and largest stone pagoda in Korea. The stone pagoda is almost collapsed, leaving only the sixth floor at the corner of the northeast, but it is originally estimated to be the ninth floor. The stone pagoda of Mireuksa Temple Site was found to be a stone pagoda, not a wooden pagoda, according to a survey by the Mahan Baekje Cultural Institute of Wonkwang University between 1974 and 1975. The pagoda was then identified as nine stories by excavation and restored to nine stories (27.67m high) in 1993. The reason why this stone pagoda is regarded as the best stone pagoda in Korea is that the style of this pagoda faithfully reproduced the angular style of the wooden pagoda, which was popular before that, using stones instead of wood. Party leadership is the left side of the party to support party leadership.It refers to a pillar built on the right, that is, a pillar. The flagpole supports of Mireuksa Temple Site are a treasure, 395cm high, and are believed to have been built before the middle of the Unified Silla Period. On the south side of the stone pagoda of Mireuksa Temple Site, two pillars face east to west with a distance of about 90m from east to west.

[Korea] Andong Hahoe Village [UNESCO World Heritage]

 


Andong Hahoe Village is a famous folk village that no longer needs to be explained. Hahoe Village, where the Nakdonggang River winds around the village and forms a watery village, is a clan village of Pungsan Ryu Clan, and 70% of the villagers are still Ryu Clan. It was about 600 years ago that Pungsan Ryu Clan settled here, and before Ryu established the site, Heo and Ahn first entered and lived here. According to oral tradition, it is said that the producer of Hahoe mask was Heo Do-ryeong of the middle of Goryeo, and there is a tomb of Heo Jeong-seung in Gwangdeok-dong across the river from Hahoe Village, and the Ryu family cut down every year. In Hahoe Village, there is a saying, "In Heo's place, Ahn's gate, and Ryu's Baepan," which drove the natives to marry into Ryu's house, which motivated the energy of Ahn's family to take out the clan's place.


Hahoe Village was also a popular destination in the international media for Queen Elizabeth of England in 1999 and President Bush of the United States in 2005. Seoae Ryu Seong-ryong's memoirs of the Imjin War, "Jingbirok" and Hahoe Mask, are designated as national treasures, with four treasures, 10 important folk materials, and one historical site, and the entire village was designated as important folk materials in 1984.Byeolsingut Talnori, known as Hahoe Mask Dance, is an important intangible cultural property and was performed to entertain Seonangshin. It is the oldest mask dance in Korea, and it was forcibly stopped during the Japanese deduction period in 1928, and later restored. The play yard consists of eight yards: Mudong Madang, Jujip Madang, Baekjeong Madang, Halmi Madang, Pagyesung Madang, Yangban and Seonbi Madang, Wedding Madang, and Sinbang Madang. Hahoe Mask, a national treasure, is now handed down only nine masks: Gaksi, Jung, Yangban, Seonbi, Chorangi, Imae, Bune, Baekjeong, and Halmi, of which three are lost.


Among the old houses in Hahoe Village, Ipam Old House called Yangjindang is a treasure house of the Pungsan Ryu Clan and Ampa. Sarangchae has the architectural style of the Goryeo Dynasty, and Anchae is an old house where the architectural styles of Goryeo and Joseon coexist. Hahoe Village, another treasure, Chunghyodang, was built by Seo-ae's literary students as a treasure and is an old house in the style of a noble family during the Joseon Dynasty, which was rebuilt by his great-grandchild Ryu Eui-yi. There is a tree commemorating the visit of Queen Elizabeth II of England in the outer yard of the Chunghyodang. In addition, there are many places to see in Hahoe Village, such as Gwichon Old House, the head family of Pungsan Ryu Clan, Bukchon House, which was called 99 kan house on the back of the village, Namchon House built in 21st year of King Jeongjong of Joseon, Byeongsanseowon, Hwacheonseowon, and Gyeomamjeongsa Temple.Hahoe Village is also a popular filming location for movies and dramas. The scandal starring Bae Yong-joon, the YMCA baseball team, and the Korean Peninsula were filmed here in Hahoe Village. This may be because the appearance of the old tradition has been preserved so well that no other set is needed.


Although there is a sense of being tarnished by some commercial marriages, many of them have been overcome by the efforts of the villagers to preserve the tradition.The representative foods of Hahoe Village include Andong Soju, Hutjesabap, Andong Ganmogeo, and Andong Guksi, and there are many attractions such as Bongjeongsa Temple, Gosanseowon, Gwiraejeong, Keimyeongsan Natural Recreation Forest, Hakgasan Natural Recreation Forest, and Waryongsan Mountain.On July 31, 2010, Hahoe Village in Andong and Yangdong Village in Gyeongju were listed on UNESCO's World Heritage List as ``Korean Historical Villages.''

* Andong Hahoe Village (British Queen's Visit Course) *


Hahoe Village is a typical clan village where Pungsan Ryu has lived for generations, and is a village where the beauty of traditional Korean houses lives. Andong Hahoe Village, also the birthplace of Confucian scholar and scholar Ryu Un-ryong and Seo-ae Ryu Seong-ryong of the Joseon Dynasty, became more famous on April 21, 1999, when Queen Elizabeth II of England visited Korea as a place of Korean tradition.The name Hahoe here originated from the fact that the Nakdonggang River flows to the east and forms an S-shape to surround the village. To the east, there is a volcano, the vein of Taebaeksan Mountain, and the end of the stem extends to the village, forming a very low hill. Since the houses are arranged toward a low place around the hills, the left side of the house is not constant and houses are seated in the east, west, north, and south. In the center of the village, there is a large tiled house, which is the house of the Ryu Clan, and thatched houses with a well-preserved original form surround it. The Nakdonggang River flowing leisurely in front of the village, the beautifully cut Buyongdae, the endless white sand beach, and the dense old pine forest form a superb view. On the other hand, the waterway is reopened in front of Buyongdae, so you can use a ferry.


* Various things to see and enjoy in Hahoe Village *


Hahoe Village holds Hahoe Byeolsingut Talnori as a permanent performance, and the Andong International Mask Dance Festival is held every fall, and there are many attractions such as Bongjeongsa Temple, Gosanseowon, Gwiraejeong, Keimyeongsan Natural Recreation Forest, Hakgasan Natural Recreation Forest, and Waryongsan Mountain.

[Korea] Gueom-ri Stone Salt Farm

be restored to tourism resources

 


If you drive along the west coast of Jeju Island, you can meet Salt Ville, Korea's only stone salt farm. Located in Gueom-ri, this stone salt field raised soil in the vast basalt area where lava hardened and broken, filled with seawater in each compartment and dried in the sun to manufacture sea salt. It was once an important means of living for the people of Gueom-ri, with the size of the salt field reaching 4,958m². Those who were called "salts" inherited their precious salt fields only to their eldest daughter. This is where you can guess the characteristics of Jeju, where women's lifestyles were much stronger. The Gueom-ri Stone Salt Farm, which was actively operated until the 1950s, eventually disappeared due to cheap salt from the land. However, the newly restored stone salt field as a tourist resource presents a special scenery that cannot be found anywhere in Jeju. In particular, when the salt field is filled with water, tourists can take pictures of reflections as clear as a mirror.
