A quiet haven in downtown Seoul, Yanghwajin Foreign Missionary Cemetery is a special space where foreign missionaries and their families who devoted themselves to Korea during the late Joseon Dynasty and the Japanese colonial period are laid to rest. Here, you can find the tombstones of figures who contributed to the modernization of Korea, such as Horace Grant Underwood and Appenzeller, allowing you to fully feel the traces of their lives and history. Beyond a simple cemetery, the lush trees and neatly maintained gravesite are like a historical park where you can reflect on history and have a peaceful time of contemplation in a reverent atmosphere.
How about stopping for a moment on the hill overlooking the Han River to honor the noble spirit of those who lived an altruistic life in an unfamiliar land.
