Where, What and How to visit Korean Cultural Heritages in Korea?

Hello, everyone. This is Korean Unnie. Do you know what world heritage is? UNESCO World Heritage. There are so many cultural heritages around the world that retain the universal values of mankind, such as the Pyramids of Egypt, the Taj Mahal of India, the Palace of Versailles of France, and etc. There are many world heritage sites in Korea as well. Have you ever been there? As you all know, cultural heritages show the roots of the country and its people's culture. Korean cultural heritages that are the roots of the Korean Wave and K-culture. Aren't you interested? Now I will tell you about the Visit Korean Heritage campaign where you can meet the real Korea. This campaign is being carried out by the Cultural Heritage Administration and the Korean Cultural Heritage Foundation. Through cultural heritages containing the essence of real Korea, you can experience real encounters with Korea. Many Korean cultural heritages are often located in nature, which makes it easier to go visit even in this COVID-19 pandemic. But many people have no idea where to go and what to see, even though they want to experience Korea's cultural heritage. So, the foundation made a guide map that anyone can easily travel to Korea's cultural heritage, and it's the Korea Heritage Route 5 plus 2, which total has seven routes. It is a cultural heritage visit course that contains cultural heritage in every corner of the country on a three-day trip. If you follow this path, you can easily enjoy the Korean cultural heritage. If you want to travel to Gyeongsang-do, follow the olden era route. You can see the Bulguksa Temple, Seokguram, and Hahoe Village. A trip to Chungcheong-do, not far from Seoul, follows the Antiquity Road to discover the cultural heritage of Baekje, an ancient Korean kingdom. Oh, so exciting. You can learn the roots of Korean traditional dance and traditional music such as pansori and Korean folk music on Folk Music Route traveling to Jeolla-do. The Mythic Landscape Route is a course that symbolizes Jeju Island. You can enjoy the beautiful nature of Jeju Island. If you're bored with your trip to Insadong and Myeongdong every day, then you can take a new trip to Seoul along the Royalty Route to visit cultural heritages in Seoul and Gyeonggi-do. Now, lastly, there's Korean Confucian Academy Route and Asceticism Route. Yes, this might sound boring, but it is very interesting. It's so beautiful that we can go to visit seowons, which are the Korean old Confucian schools, and sansa, Korean Buddhist monasteries. Now, this is the map that I prepared for the cultural heritage visit course, and this is a cultural heritage stamp book where you can collect stamps. After you've done collecting stamps in the cultural heritage stamp book, you can receive souvenirs, yes, I'm rich, from the cultural heritage visit campaign. You can also visit the website of the campaign and get information. In addition to visiting Korean cultural heritages along the cultural heritage visit course, there are festivals and performances prepared as well. Videos of Korean on stage, a performance held in Korean cultural heritage in Suwon and Jindo are released online as well, so you can enjoy the K-pop and traditional Korean performances through videos. Lastly, did you know that the palace of the Joseon dynasty is located in the middle of the metropolitan Seoul? You can enjoy the night view of the Joseon Palace at the Palace Cultural Festival and Cultural Heritage Night, which are programs of the cultural heritage visit campaign. Wow, it's really difficult to pronounce this heritage, oh my god. Oh, now, this is another big news. It's a huge news. The cultural heritage had a collaboration with K-pop stars. K-pop stars who? Monsta X. Rise up! Monsta X's visit to cultural heritage sites will be uploaded on the official YouTube channel of the visit cultural heritage campaign every Tuesday at 16 pm, which is 4 pm KST starting from tomorrow, so make sure you check it out. And you'll also be able to see them through documentary as well soon, so you can wait for it. Facing cultural heritage is facing the spirit of our ancestors over time.
