[2025 Bucheon-si Attraction] Travel Guide for Buchon City History Museum (Updated Apr)

#AustraliaFlightEvent #koreatrip #BucheonTravel Finally!! When the wildflowers in the mini earthenware pots withered, I went back to the garden behind the museum to collect new flowers. This time, I picked up a hollyhock and a wild chrysanthemum, and chose white petals that contrasted with the blue color of the glaze. When I got home and placed the handmade earthenware pots on the windowsill, I noticed that the wavy patterns of the glaze reflected in the sunlight were casting shadows on the wall!! I think there are more useful things about mini pottery than I thoughtㅎㅎ😊 📌 Solo traveler's final checklist Must visit: Pottery workshop "Scent of Earth" near the museum → Real-time viewing of pottery making process (Admission fee 5,000 won) Hidden souvenir: Unfinished pottery fragments in the workshop store (3,000 won) → Materials for repairing with gold leaf at home Recommended record: Share how to use mini pottery with the hashtag #OnggiDailyLife on Instagram → Pottery experience ticket provided through raffle 🚨 A sweet tip to remember forever The workshop is only open from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. on Tuesdays to Thursdays (advance inquiry required) We recommend using a special adhesive (sold at the workshop 7,000 won) when repairing fragments The winners of the Instagram event are announced on the last Monday of every month Be sure to stop by when you have time.

#AustraliaFlightEvent #koreatrip #BucheonTravel After leaving the exhibition hall, I bought a handmade pottery kit (18,000 won) at the souvenir shop on the first floor of the museum. Back home, I made a cold coffee cup with the kit, and I felt the rough texture of the clay in my hands. The next morning, I poured a warm Americano into this cup and drank it, and there was a special feeling of old technology seeping into modern life. It was so special. It was so special. ㅋㅋㅋ 📌 Additional Exploration for Solo Travelers Recommended Activities: Every Saturday at 2 PM, Pottery Glaze Workshop (Advance Reservation, 2 hours/30,000 won) → Make your own glaze and paint the pottery Hidden Item: Pottery Fragment Necklace (9,500 won) in the corner of the souvenir shop → An accessory made by wrapping ancient pottery fragments in silver foil Recommended Finishing: Traditional garden behind the museum → Collect wild flowers to put in the completed pottery 🚨 Smart Tip Reservations for the workshop can be made on the website 3 days before your visit The necklace can be adjusted to fit the length of your neck (ask the staff) When collecting in the garden, bring small scissors and a paper bag. Dandelions and mugworts picked in the garden I put it in a mini earthenware jar and put it on my desk. Every time the traces of the glaze drip down and shine in the light, it feels like I'm seeing the moment when imperfection turns into perfection!! Now, as I fill my breakfast in the handmade jar every morning, I realize that earthenware is not just a relic, but a companion in life.. I'm so happyㅋㅋ!! #Bucheon Local History Museum 2nd floor

#AustraliaFlightEvent #koreatrip #BucheonTravel Yesterday afternoon, I visited the Onggi Exhibition Hall on the 2nd floor of Bucheon Local History Museum and felt the practicality and artistry of Joseon Dynasty ceramics at the same time. The exhibition hall displayed 15th to 19th century pottery discovered in Bucheon soil, categorized by period, and I was particularly interested in the changes in glaze on bronze-age earthenware jars and late Joseon Dynasty Buncheong ware. When I observed the natural patterns of glaze flowing down through a magnifying glass, I was able to discover the aesthetic value hidden in imperfection!! It was so amazing!! 📌 Points for solo travelers Recommended activities: Making a mini jar with clay at the pottery handle experience corner (material cost 5,000 won, 20 minutes) Hidden spot: Pottery sound room behind the exhibition hall → Listen to the resonance sound by putting your ear to the jar Recommended snack: Museum lobby food truck injeolmi + plum tea set (7,000 won) 🚨 Notes The experience corner closes at 4:30 PM (same-day reservations required) If there is noise in the sound room, immediately notify the staff You will receive a souvenir when you participate in the QR code stamp tour in the exhibition hall In various sections, the modern work that joined broken pottery with gold was impressive!!! You could read the beauty of imperfection in the design that filled the broken parts with silver foil. I brought the mini jar I made by hand at the experience corner home and use it as a small flower pot. ㅋㅋㅋ It makes me feel the specialness of old technology permeating my daily life!!! #Bucheon Local History Museum 2nd floor

#AustraliaFlightEvent #BucheonHistoryMuseum #BucheonTravel Today at 3pm, I visited the "Bucheon Time Capturing" exhibition on the 2nd floor of the Bucheon History Museum. This exhibition is organized to show Bucheon's urban changes from the 1950s to the 2000s in chronological order. In particular, the space to reproduce the daily lives of factory workers in the 70s and the corner to experience the 90s arcade game machines caught my eye!! I could feel the heat of the industrialization era by directly looking at the factory work clothes and tools used at the time!!!! 📌 Points for solo travelers Recommended activities: Experience classic games (Pac-Man, Tetris) at the 1990s arcade corner Hidden spot: 'Time Capsule Drawer' in the corner of the exhibition hall → A service that delivers letters written by visitors 10 years later Recommended snack: Cotton candy + Sikhye set (6,000 won) provided by the retro cafe 🚨 Notes The experience corner closes at 5 PM (check the time in advance) Be careful of exposing personal information when writing letters Use the game consoles after staff guidance In the "Bucheon 24 Hours" video room in the center of the exhibition hall, you can watch scenes from the morning market in the 1980s to the night streets in the 2000s. Comparing it to the current appearance of Bucheon that appears at the end of the video, I could really feel the speed of urban development!!!! I don't know now, but it's true that it's grown a lot compared to the past!! It was interesting!!! #Special exhibition hall #koreatrip

#AustraliaFlightEvent #koreatrip #SangseongExhibitionSite1 As we wrap up the pottery corner of SangseongExhibitionSite1, we focused on the modern reinterpretation of traditional pottery. The eco-friendly sculptures created by modern artists using pottery production techniques showed the potential of plastic as an alternative material. The multipurpose flowerpots made of recycled clay were a work that captured both practicality and aesthetic value!! It was so amazing!! 📌 Last tip for solo travelers Recommended activity: Participate in the pottery handle making experience held every Saturday at 2 PM (material cost 10,000 won, 1 hour) Hidden spot: East corner of the museum garden → Mosaic mural photo zone using discarded pottery pieces Recommended snack: Cafe next to the pottery experience center fermented enzyme drink + handmade Korean sweets set (8,500 won) 🚨 Final checkpoints Advance reservation is required for the experience (no on-site registration) The pottery piece photo zone can be slippery, so be careful with your shoes Scan the QR code in the exhibition hall to listen to the pottery history podcast It was a meaningful time to realize that pottery is not just a relic!! It was so great!! Next time, I want to visit the pottery workshop and make my own piece!!!! 🏺 #Bucheon Local History Museum #Bucheon Travel

#AustraliaFlightEvent #BucheonLocalHistoryMuseum #koreatrip While looking around Sangseong Exhibition Hall 1, I discovered the unique pottery culture of Bucheon in the traditional earthenware corner. Various sizes and shapes of earthenware were on display, but the large jar for kimchi and the reproduction of the kimchi storage jar were particularly impressive. While reading the guide explaining the detailed patterns on the surface of the earthenware and the production techniques, I realized that earthenware is not just a simple vessel, but a work of art in everyday life. It was so amazing!! 📌 Points for solo travelers Recommended activities: Watch an interactive video showing the pottery making process, then observe the inside of an actual pottery Hidden spots: Experience the pottery handle corner in the corner of the exhibition hall → A space where you can hold a model made of clay Recommended snacks: Traditional fermented beverage (sikhye) + yakgwa set (5,500 won) sold at the museum store 🚨 Precautions Do not touch the pottery as it is a fragile artifact and keep a safe distance The experience corner is open until 4 p.m. Ask the staff for any questions related to pottery In the "Pottery, Containing Life" section of the exhibition hall, you can learn about the history of fermentation culture in a space that reproduces a jangdokgan. It was surprising to see that a single pottery was used for various purposes, from kimchi to soy sauce, and it was an opportunity to think about sustainable lifestyles compared to modern plastic containers!! Thank you!! #SangseongExhibitionHall1 #BucheonTravel

#AustraliaFlightEvent #BucheonTravel #BucheonLocalHistoryMuseum This afternoon, I visited the Sangseong Exhibition Hall 1 of the Bucheon Local History Museum and had a special time to deeply understand the history and culture of Bucheon. The exhibition hall was filled with models and materials that recreated Bucheon's old villages and lifestyles! The traditional houses and farming tools of Sangseong-ri Village caught my eye.
