You can see various exhibitions, and I visited the exhibition 'Seoul is the main character of a novel' from 2020.05.06 to 2020.11.01. It was really meaningful because I was able to learn about the history of a field that I normally had no knowledge of. 🔅Currently, various exhibitions are being held, such as 'Gwangtonggyo, the first bridge in the city', Hwasin Department Store - the landmark of the disappeared Dongro'. 🔅Daily 10:00-18:00 Closed on January 1 #SeoulTravel #Exhibition #MemoriesForsale #SeoulMuseumofHistory

#JanuaryTravelSupportEvent #2024WishEvent Time Travel Alone at Seoul Museum of History Yesterday (February 18th) afternoon, I visited Seoul Museum of History at the end of Deoksugung Stone Wall Road. I stopped in front of the Joseon Dynasty Hanyang City Wall model to take a picture, and the guide told me, "There's a replica artifact hidden under the stairs over there!" As a bonus, I found a replica of the Gabo Reform document from 1894. I read a letter from an independence activist during the Japanese colonial period in the exhibition room on the 3rd floor, and my eyes got teary. 📌 Key tips for solo travelers Hidden points: Recreate the 1920s Jongno streets at the AR experience zone on the 2nd floor Photo zone: 600-year-old well in the courtyard on the 1st floor + winter tree shadows Recommendation: Escape the cold with a homemade pumpkin latte (6,000 won) at the 'Moonlight Tea House' next to the museum 🚨 Notes Closed on Mondays (Open from 09:00 to 21:00 on Tue~Sun) No flash photography allowed at the special exhibition hall on the 1st basement floor Be careful of the slippery stone steps in the outdoor exhibition hall As 5 o'clock approached, I made memories while looking at the sunset reflected on the large Seoul model. The security guard said, "You should definitely come to the AR tour that opens in the spring," so I'm looking forward to my next visit! 🌸 #FebruaryTravelSupportEvent #SeoulMuseumofHistory #koreatrip

📝Korea Travelogue part22: Seoul History Museum📝 🖼️🖼️🖼️🖼️ The museum doesn't have a lot of artifacts, but mainly presents various materials, models, and scene reconstructions that introduce the history of Seoul. It is divided into four sections: Seoul during the Joseon Dynasty, Seoul during the opening of the port and the Great Han Empire, Seoul during the Japanese occupation, and Seoul as the capital of the Republic of Korea. The layout is clear and the interactive segments and display logic are exceptionally well done, making it a model in the museum world. 📷📷📷📷 You can see the city models of Seoul from different periods and the original exhibitions of important scenes from each period, which is both educational and photogenic. Seeing Seoul during the Japanese occupation period is quite emotional, as its fate was not much different from that of China at the time, indeed the history of countries that have been through hardships is quite similar 😂 Visited on September 14, 2019
