Also, administration was moved from Gwangju to inside of the fortress, clearly showing the importance of Namhansanseong Fortress.

  • Korean Folk Village

    About Korean Folk Village Lying in a spacious site of 990,000㎡ and in nature-given geomantic location ‘facing water and backgrounded by mountains’, Korean Folk Village (KFV) is a village from the Joseon period composed of real houses relocated from provinces of the country. Reconstructed through a long survey of houses remaining in different parts of the country and authentication by specialists, it is a real village from the Joseon period that unfolds in seasonal transformation scenes from everyday folk culture meticulously collected. The village was created with common people’s houses and aristocrats’ houses relocated or restored from different parts of the country such as south, middle, north, and islands. It presents the real life from old Joseon life, which includes gwana (provincial government office), seowon and seodang (the educational institute), hanyakbang (the medical institution), Buddhist temples and seonangdang (the religious buildings), and the fortune-teller’s place.

Exceptional day tour!

Published on May, 2024

I highly recommend this tour of both the UNESCO Namhansanseong Fortress and Korean Folk Village. Each location is interesting and worthy of a visit on its own, but together they create a perfect combination of nature, history, and culture! This was our second tour with (Chance) Kim (after hiking up Baegundae Peak) and we enjoyed the day with him as he guided us through both sites. Namhansanseong Fortress is located in beautiful mountains outside of Seoul, and we had amazing views as we hiked along the fortress wall to the top of Namhansan mountain. After visiting the fortress, we stopped at a restaurant where Kim ordered a very large and delicious lunch. We then drove to the Folk Village where Kim gave us an extensive tour through the historical houses and village displays. He also gave us ample time to explore the village on our own, which was great! We were able to watch several musical and dance performances, wander through other parts of the village, and even shop for souvenirs and buy ice cream. Amazingly, in spite of the full day's itinerary, Kim managed to drop us off at our hotel exactly 9 hours after picking us up! I highly recommend this tour for everyone!

History 2 different ways

Published on May, 2024

We had a wonderful private tour with our driver/guide David who explained the history of Namhansanseong Fortress brilliantly. It can be a bit of a steep climb/walk around the perimeter between gates but was well worth it. The Korean Folk Village was also interesting and we managed to see the show/parade before it poured with rain. We toured the complex with the rain but still had a great time exploring the different aspects of life between the classes.

Highly recommend!

We had a great time touring with BJ. He was extremely accommodating to our baby and knew so much about Korean history! Thank you for taking such good care of us.

Special experience

Published on Mar, 2024

Culturally valid tour and capable and expert guide. Then with the snow even better, everything was very reliable and perfect. I also had an excellent impression on the visit to the village on ancient traditions and customs of Korea and the museum.

Amazing Day Tour

Published on Oct, 2023

This private tour was absolutely amazing, we loved every single moment of it! Our tour guide Alfonso was super friendly and knowledgeable. He shared a lot about the history of the sites and was happy to answer all of our questions - and our 7yo had a lot of them! The tour was super organised and we enjoyed delicious Korean lunch together with our guide. Thank you so much for such a memorable day! Definitely recommend to go for it!
