What people say

"Gyeongju Daereungwon Ancient Tomb Complex is a must-see for history buffs visiting South Korea. Located in Hwangnam-dong, Gyeongju, this area houses the tombs of ancient Silla royalty, including the famous Cheonmachong and Hwangnamdaechong Tombs, excavated in the 1970s. Wander among the impressive burial mounds and imagine the grandeur of the Silla dynasty. This site offers a fascinating glimpse into Korea’s rich cultural heritage."
Kelly Foo
"Right above the Cheomseongdae Observatory lies the Daereungwon Tomb Complex, a collection of giant mounds. Including royal tombs from way over a millennium, travel back in time and experience the history of Gyeongju up close. As another historical site, it is a sight you don’t want to miss out on with cherry blossoms fluttering around in the Spring breeze. "
Kenna Peters
"Wander through this ancient burial site early in the morning or late at night for serene and peaceful views. The complex is home to numerous large burial mounds of Silla royalty, each telling its own story from Korea's rich past."
