Gyeongju was the capital of Silla for about 1,000 years, and its historical sites are well-preserved today. Therefore, it is considered a must-visit travel destination for travelers interested in history. You can start your journey through Silla's history at Cheomseongdae, where you can get a glimpse of Silla's technology, science, and wisdom. You should also stop by Donggung Palace and Wolji Pond, a secondary palace. If you want to make your visit special, you can wear hanbok from a rental store while walking around downtown.
