The Korean Folk Village in Suwon is an open-air living museum recreating life in the Joseon period. Real dwellings were actually relocated to the Folk Village from other parts of the country to provide a realistic glimpse of how both peasants and aristocrats lived in the period. Various shows and workshops take place during the day including the traditional folk music of Pungmul that involves dancing and drumming. 
There’s a lot to see at the Folk Village so allow at least half a day – it is ideal combined with Suwon’s fortress for a full weekend. Easily accessible from Suwon, there are free shuttle buses that run from Suwon Station (outside from exit 5) that run every two hours. Alternatively there are public buses or you can take a taxi (approx. 12,000W each way). The journey takes around half an hour. More details and bus timetables can be found here. Adult entry to the village costs 15,000W.
Have you visited any interesting museums recently?
Hmm sure brings me back good memories of Seoul. And that wonderful show from a street kitchen vendor who made the 16000 Strings Honey Candy dessert. Remembering the taste of these candies with pistachio, almond paste & hasselnut paste fillings. Yummy : )
Ah I know exactly the stuff you mean, it’s so yummy! I love the guys who make it and do the chant/song to go along with it too. Glad to hear you have such good memories of Seoul :)
This museum looks so interesting! Historical places are always so eye-opening; it must have been cool to experience what it would have been like back in the day in Suwon!
Definitely :) As so much of Korea was flattened in the Korean war, it’s amazing to go somewhere you can see and experience what the country would have been like prior to then. That also makes the museum even more popular with South Koreans than with tourists/expats!
