Gimcheon

Today, the day came for me to visit Gyeongbuk Gimcheon.

Gimcheon boasts a long history and a deep-rooted tradition. And beautiful nature, Buddhist temple, Confucian schools and Seowon ; these are source of pride in this place.



Autumn season is best time to take a trip in Korea.

I head out Gimcheon Jikji park where is famous for mixing culture and special thema.

The fresh air makes me feel cool and the place was very pretty.





Like a representative of Gimcheon, there are colorful maple trees, the sound of cool water and nice sculpture.

The park was like a beautiful watercolor painting.



This bench looks very comfortable… Everyone will seat down when they find it.

Drinking a tea and seat the bench is picturesque in the autumn. Please have a seat and enjoy~



I was enjoying stepping on the fallen leaves.

I took a beautiful picture and enjoy enough myself. I walked toward the Gimcheon world porcelain museum.





A world porcelain museum was very easy to find and located on the edge of a park.

This picture in front is the museum.



I saw outstanding big model of something. WOW !! This is the large porcelain. It was very big and gorgeous.

I walked into the inside museum.







Here, a world porcelain museum is very famous for introducing global porcelain made by soil, heating clay.

And European porcelain as Wedgwood, Meissen and Royal Copenhagen are on display in the museum house.

A world porcelain museum, you will be able to see general crystal of history about porcelain by great artist from long time ago to modern times.

I was lucky to have a chance to appreciate such a work of art created by East and West.

Also I was able to see how to make porcelain and watch video about amazing porcelain.

I saw fancy and elegance porcelain a lot. It was very impressive.



I left porcelain museum and head out Jikji-sa temple.



Here is Jikji-sa entrance. Jikji-sa temple was constructed in 418 by Buddhist priest Adohwasang.

According to my expectations the temple was grand!








The temple and autumn season was perfect harmony. It was just like beautiful painting.

I entered the Jikji-sa temple.



The most outstanding thing was three storied stone pagoda.





The three storied stone pagoda was covered in such amazing uniquely Korean designs that it was very popular for foreigners.





There were a lot more to see about Korea such as life goods and unique stuff.



There are lots of things to see.. a little more than I expected.




I arrived at the main temple (Daewoonjun) which Jikji-sa’s heart!

The main temple (Daewoonjun) was designated as National Treasure No.1576. For countless years, the national treasure was greatly appreciated by people for representing culture and history of Korea.






I left Jikji-sa temple. I walked and take a look around. A beautiful autumn season makes me very happy and comportable.

This Jikji-sa temple is picturesque in the autumn. I will remember here a long time.




I was walking on the road as called Moti road ( Gyeongbuk dialect : corner road ) with full of beautiful memories.






Here was such a charming place that I was sorry to come back.

Gyeongbuk Gimcheon. Always wants to visit! Have fun in here!!
