Berry Petite: Things to do in Gyeongsangbukdo - Gyeongju

So for this trip, we went to the southern part of Korea!

And our first stop is Gyeongju!

DAY 1

Once we arrive, we had a very delicious lunch in Ho-bak-go-ul, 호박고을. The owner was really nice and he made us feel comfortable! The food there is also amazing! It is one of the MUST-TRY foods if anyone goes to Gyeongju.

I highly recommend this to those who love duck meat and wants to have a healthy Korean meal in Gyeongju.

After lunch, we went to the Gyeongju Museum. There, they have several relics from the Shilla dynasty and several of them are considered as the Korean National Treasure.

Shilla is one of the dynasties that is known to use a lot of gold and this is one of the crowns which was used by one of the kings in Shilla dynasty that became Korea's National Treasure.

We also went to the Cheomseongdae. It is an astronomical observatory build during the Shilla dynasty and currently it is oldest observatory in East Asia.

And the garden around Cheomseongdae is very beautiful. A great place for awesome pictures!

After that we went to Anapji which is known as the East Palace during the Shilla dynasty. During that period, the crown prince would have celebrations and feasts with guests near the lake due to its beautiful night scenery.
