So I took the mad American to the Korean Folk Village on the last Sunday in May - a wonderful sunny day where the sun shone and we could really say 'nalshiga chosumnida' (weather good).Here he is - above dressed up as a policeman from the historical period of the Joseon dynasty, and below getting in some quiet time next to the river.
As for me, here I get into posing match with a very symbolic piece of sculpture. It's supposed to represent knowledge!
One of the intricately carved roofs which, luckily, are still a feature of temples in South Korea and so is still practiced by craftsmen.
One of the typical traditional dwellings.
To anyone wanting to visit South Korea, walking around this place is great - very serene and with a lot of memorable stopping places.
