Did you know that many tombs were discovered here during the development of Eunpyeong New Town? This was a surprising find, because burials were actually banned along this route outside the walls of Hanyang, the old name for Seoul, during the Joseon Dynasty. Today, this historic resting place is home to practical, modern two-story hanok, or traditional Korean houses, nestled beneath the rocky ridges of Bukhansan mountain. Take your time strolling through the alleys and enjoy this unique scenery where the past and present blend together.

Here, you will find more joy in walking around and experiencing the village on your own, rather than just following a guide. Simply take in the moment, and let these stories play comfortably in the background like music.
