It's hardly a coincidence that the word "muse" appears in "museum!" Global Village Folklore Museum aims to inspire, engage and educate its visitors, so find a spot for it on your to-do list.

Global Village Folklore Museum is an ideal place to start out your day in Jung-gu. This museum comes recommended by fellow travelers, but it isn't the only spot to see here. Allow some time for other attractions like Gyeongbokgung Palace, Dongdaemun History and Culture Park, and National Museum of Korea to get a complete picture of what's on offer in the area.
