#KoreaTrip #SoloTrip #Cheongju #Walk #Museum Second day in Cheongju. Unfortunately, it's raining. I decided to go to the National Museum of Art, which I couldn't go to last time. I asked the lady at the tourist information center next to the intercity bus terminal how to get to the museum. You can get to the museum from the intercity bus terminal by express🚌109 or other lines. The bus stop has a long name, and I learned that the Municipal Museum of Art is on the way. There are several squares and buildings between the bus stop and the museum, but I found the Contemporary Art Museum right away. When I went inside, various objects were displayed in chronological order and by material. Next to the museum, there was a commercial facility with restaurants and fashion stores, and it was crowded with many people spending lunch on a rainy day off. On the way to the bus🚌 stop on the way back, I found a stylish tourist information center, and in addition to the Municipal Museum of Art, I was told about the highlights of Cheongju and got a guidebook to go home.

#artshunting The National Museum of Modern and Contem porary Art is located in Gwacheon-si, Gyeonggi do area. There is no entrance fee, but tickets are required for some special exhibitions.

#Exhibition #National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art #Cheongju National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art #Cheongju Travel #Cheongju Indoor Date #Indoor Date Recommendation ​Since Cheongju National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art is a national museum, admission is free. You take the elevator to the 6th floor and go down one floor at a time to view the exhibits. I could feel the effort put into exhibiting various works in the exhibition space from the 6th floor to the 2nd floor. The level of the works was always at our level, so it felt more familiar. ​

#Exhibition #National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art Cheongju ❣️Location: 314 Sangdang-ro, Cheongwon-gu, Cheongju-si, Chungcheongbuk-do ❣️This is a place where you can enjoy cultural life for free by remodeling an old tobacco factory. It consists of a storage and exhibition hall from the 1st to the 5th floor. Various sculptures, carvings, and modern art pieces are on display. There is also an art experience exhibition hall, so it is good to come with children. Wonder Aria and Dongbu Warehouse are right next to it, so you can enjoy shopping, cafes, and cultural life all at once. #Cheongju #Places to visit in Cheongju #Cheongju exhibition #Cheongju Art Museum #Art Museum #National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art #Cheongju hot place #Hot place

#summervacay Ended up at the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Cheongju (MMCA Cheongju) on a lazy afternoon, and honestly? Kinda loved it. The building itself is super cool, like an old tobacco factory turned artsy hangout. Industrial but not cold, you know? Inside, the vibe is mellow but interesting. The exhibits switch up pretty often, so you never really know what you’re gonna get, but that’s part of the fun. Saw some funky installations, a few “what-am-I-looking-at” moments, and a couple pieces that lowkey blew my mind. It’s not huge, which I actually liked, you can take your time without getting museum fatigue. The little gift shop’s got artsy goodies, and there’s a chill cafe where you can sit, sip, and stare out the window like you're in a music video. If you're in Cheongju and want to feel cultured without trying too hard, this place hits the spot. Easygoing, creative, and just the right amount of weird.
