This is the National Iksan Museum in Jeollabuk-do, South Korea.

This is the National Iksan Museum in Jeollabuk-do, Republic of Korea. Iksan, a fertile place of life 'Iksan' was originally the name of the area around Geumma-myeon, Iksan-si. Many stories in history were created here. You can see the rich old Iksan in books and maps from the Joseon Dynasty. Unified Silla pottery and Goryeo celadon excavated from the sea and inland show the development of water transportation and the way it reached consumers. From the stories contained in the relics, you can see Geumma, the center of Uisan that developed based on fertile land. Records describe Iksan as a new capital or separate city of Baekje. As proof of this, Iksan has many facilities that a capital city of a country should have. The Wanggung-ri site has the formality and scale of a royal palace. Jeseoksa Temple is the second largest temple in Baekje after Mireuksa Temple, showing the grandeur of a royal temple. Ssangneung has the same tomb structure and wooden coffin as the Baekje Royal Tombs in Buyeo. To defend these, the surrounding mountains were built tightly to form a fortress. And Mireuksa Temple, the symbol of the new ruling ideology, the belief in the descent of Maitreya, was founded. Iksan, where the royal palace, royal temple, royal tomb, defense facilities, and symbols of the new ruling ideology remain. Iksan was the new capital of Baekje. Safety first, no matter what you build Just as we still hold ancestral rites today, there are various rituals that people who build buildings and those who will live in them, both in the past and now, hope to ignore. Before construction begins, they offer sacrifices to the gods of the land and offer items that contain the meaning of suppressing bad energy and wishing for the safety of the building. Pottery has been used as a daily necessity in all parts of the world for the past 10,000 years. Pottery is made through the process of preparing clay, shaping it, and firing it to make it hard and durable. In societies with different levels and characteristics, this technology was applied in various ways to make pottery. Pottery was used for a wide variety of purposes and contexts. Gunsan refers to a group of mountains. Today, there are 63 large and small islands in the sea in front of Gunsan, but in the past, the sea was deeper than it is now, and there were many islands. The islands in the sea seen from the coast looked like mountains, and this appearance is used as a word to refer to this area today. #Domestic travel #Travel plan #February travel subsidy event
