Situated 720m above sea level, Museum SAN is a combination of Tadao Ando's exposed concrete and "artist of light and space" James Terrell's works. The museum was included in the "100 Must-visit Attractions in Korea" selected by the Korea Tourism Organization for four years in a row. It was also dubbed the "dreamlike museum like no other" in the Financial Times and was on the Four Destination Museums You Must Visit Before You Die by Singaporean The Artling. At 700m long, visitors follow the original, undisturbed trail to the Welcome Center, Flower Garden, Water Garden, Main Hall, Stone Garden, and James Terrell Hall. Square, triangular, and circular "no shape"-shaped spaces form the Main Hall, designed to look like a box within a box. The architects wished to connect the sky and the earth through people. Whatever the season, the view of the garden is always refreshingly phenomenal.
