A Special Territory, Home to UNESCO World Cultural HeritagesGyeonggimeans outer land of kingdoms capitaland is to protect the royal palace. Since 1018 (Goryeo Dynasty)

when the name was first used, the province has long been specially treated as the area guarding capital of kingdom.

It is why you can find Suwon Hwaseong Fortress and Royal Tombs of the Joseon Dynasty here. Suwon Hwaseong, the

masterpiece of the Joseon Dynasty, is one of the finest Asian fortresses. It was scientifically designed based on both

Asian and Western military science theories and the oriental philology of filial piety.Passing through the downtown area

of Suwon, the fortress is one of the popular tourist destinations; it works off the charm of Gyeonggi-do where tradition

and modernity are balanced. Registered recently as a World Heritage by UNESCO, the Royal Tombs of the Joseon

Dynasty is attracting worldwide attention.Its very rare in the world that a single dynasty existed for 519 years and it's extraordinarily hard to maintain the tombs of

kings and queens in that excellent state. UNESCO, impressed with their artistic and historic value, came to designate all

of 40 tombs as the world heritages. 31 out of the 40 tombs lies in Gyeonggi-do. Based on this valuable cultural heritage,

the province has become the center of Hallyu, or the Korean Wave.

Heart of Hallyu (Korea Drama and K-Pop)Dae Jang Geum, an advance guard for Hallyu dramas that has been on a roll in Japan, China, Middle Ea st and Southeast

Asian Nations, was shot at Hwaseong Fortress in Suwon and Korean Folk Village in Yongin. Invested and managed by

MBC, one of the major broadcasting stations in Korea , the Yongin MBC Dramia is bustling with a lot of foreign tourists

since it was the location of Dae Jang Geum, The Moon That Embraces the Sunand The Great Queen Seondeok. Indeed,

Gentleman, the music video of Psy, which recorded the big global hit in 2012, was shot at the Onemount in Goyang, and

some episodes of Running Manof SBS that are popular in Southeast Asian Nations were shot at the Onemount and the

Petite France in Gapyeong,

Best Province 31Gyeonggi-do consists of 31 cities and counties, which enclose Seoul like a doughnut. They are just like 31 varied theme

parks in and of themselves, attracting tourists all the year round with unique and fascinating feasts. With massive

theme parks, beautiful natural parks and diverse experiential facilities, the province offers world-class festivals as well as

charming local fairs. It has the Korean tourism resources and conveniences for city tour, as well.

31 themes and fascinating tourist attractions in 31 areas! War and peace, environment and technology, nature and art -

all these themes are available here in Gyeonggi-do, the hub of Koreas tourism realm.

Full of Excitement; Theme ParksEverland was ranked as one of four major theme parks by Forbes in 2006. Located in Gyeonggi-do, it is one of the most

impressive tourist attractions in Korea with nine million visitors annually. Apart from Everland there are many exciting

theme parks in the province such as Gwacheon Seoul Land, Woongjin Placydoci and Onemount. The Korean Folk Village,

which features Giwajip (mansions of Yangban, aristocrats in Joseon Dynasty) as well as Chogajip (rice straw-thatched

house), is one of world-class tourist destinations you can experience a variety of Korean traditions and cultures. For

foreign tourists, in particular, it is a must-see destination since Nongak (a rural form of Korean percussive music), Jultagi

(tight-rope walking) and Korean traditional wedding are performed all the year round. Woongjin Playdoci, opened

recently in 2009, fits out the worlds 12th indoor ski slope and offers advanced technology and services.

One and Only Place on Earth ; DMZThe DMZ (De-Militarized Zone) is a natural tourist attraction. The world's only active strip of division, DMZ has recently

come to be regarded as a great ecological tourist spot with exquisite natural resources. Many people including children

and world celebrities have visited the DMZ, which has been cut off from the outside world for half a century, to discover

the importance of nature and to hear a true message of peace.

Gyeonggi-do in KoreaThe most charming region in Korea where the past, present and

future come together. Lets navigate this fascinating place.

Geographically, Gyeonggi-do surrounds Seoul, the capital city of the Republic of Korea and is the

center and the economic hub of the country. With two airports and two ports, it allows easy access

to any city in Northeast Asia within two hours. Gyeonggi-do is where the tour in Korea begins. From

prehistoric times through Baekje, Goryeo and Joseon Dynasties, which had maintained the royal road

through the region, Koreas leading industries like IT, auto industry and tourism have ourished here.

Temple StayTemple Stay is a program for tourists to experience the Buddhist temple culture. Staying a few

days at the temple participants lead a daily life of monks or Buddhist disciplinants. There would

be typical programs for meditation and dining, etc., through which they come to learn the Asian

sentiments and spirit of Buddhism. Take a walk in a tranquil forest, have peace of mind restored

in a natural getting away from the hectic city life, perform Yeondeung (Lotus Lantern offered to

Buddha) or learn tea ceremony. Korean Temple Stay should offer a great opportunity for you to

rediscover your true self.

Temple Food With plain, unspiced Buddhist cuisine that does not use the Osinchae(fivevegetables banned in temple; green onion, garlic, wild rocambole, wild leek and honggeo),

temple food offers a menu of fine Korean vegetables popular among vegetarians. You can learn

the Buddhist doctrines which aim to attain peace of mind by abstaining from flesh and fish.

Tapdori (Circling a pagoda) Originally it was a Buddhist religious ceremony held onBuddhas birthday, but now was developed into a folk event . Circling the pagoda whilst singing

ritual song is not onl y a festival event, but a way of training our mind.

Making Yeondeung You can try to make a Yeondeung, or paper lotus lantern, and makea wish by hanging it with a note your wish is written.

Meditation Meditation is a spiritual program, through which participants can separate theirmind from worldly desires and find their true self. Experience meditation in a calm Beopdang

(sermon hall) or while walking among the forest at dawn.

Making Beads Participants make the 108-beads. The number 108 stems from "108torments of mankind." These 108-beads are used to count the number when they perform

Baekpalbae (108 bows which means repenting 108 times).

Tea Ceremony Tea is one of the six offerings to Buddha (tea, incense, flower, lantern, fruitand rice). Tea is especially important in Buddhism because of the belief that having tea is just like

carrying out Buddhist practice.During staying in a temple, participants will experience a spiritual

awakening by taking tea and conversing with monks.

Wawoojongsa TempleYonginThe Wawoojongsa Temple, situated 48km south from Seoul (about 50 minutes drive) is not only

easy to visit, but also boasts its beautiful surrounding landscape.

The Mt. Yunwha in Yongin embracing the Temple is one of Koreas major tourist sites where

such attractions like the Everland Amusement Park, the Yongin Ski Resort, MBC Dramia and the

Korean Folk Village are located in the vicinity.

The Wawoojongsa Temple was established by Haegeun Kim, who was a refugee from North

Korea, to pray for peaceful Unification of Korea; it is sort of a mecca of the Korean peoples spirit

for patriotism.

A lot of foreigners have visited the Temple, whom His Reverend Haeduk, the head monk of the

Temple welcomes in person with warm affection.

There are many treasures in the Temple: Lying Buddha which was carved from Chinese junipers

brought in from India and is the worlds first wooden Buddha according to the Guiness Book of

Records; Five Buddha Statues cast in brass; Reunification Bell which announced the opening of

the 1988 Seoul Olympic Games. Additionally, the Temple maintains numerous Buddhas from

different countries including India, Myanmar, Sri Lanka, China and Thailand.

Gilt-bronze image of Sakyamuni Buddha To celebrate the 80th accession to thethrone of Monarch of Thailand, the Thai royal family had cast gilt bronze amounted to 10 ton

Royal Tombs of the Joseon DynastyAs the Royal Tombs of the Joseon Dynasty were designated as the UNESCO World Heritage

on June 27, 2009, a fresh light is being thrown on them. It is because that it is a rare case in the

world to find one single dynasty having lasted for such a long period of 519 years.

It is also uncommon to see tombs of successive kings and queens preserved intact. UNESCO

also has acknowledged and been so deeply impressed by their historical and aesthetical value

as to designate the entire 40 Royal Tombs as UNESCO World Heritages. As many as 31 of the 40

tombs lie in Gyeonggi-do.

The Tombs are t he epitomized remains of the Korea n viewpoints such as Confucianism,Buddhism, feng-shui, etc., and their value as a cultural asset is high.

Each of the Tombs is as good place as it can help visitors enjoy easy and quiet stroll away from

crowd city.

Yungneung & Geonneung Tombs in Hwaseong of Gyeonggi-do are close to another World

Heritage of Suwon Hwasung Fortress and Suwon World Cup Stadium.

Donggureung Tomb in Guri would be enjoyable to look around together with the shooting

location of Taewangsasingi(The Four Guardian Gods of the King), the famous TV series, and Guri

Tower of Guri Resource Recovery Facility.
