If you want to learn about the history and culture of Gaya, the Gimhae National Museum is the place to go.
It is an archeological museum specializing in preserving and exhibiting various cultural properties
with a focus on the Gaya period theme.
Including the permanent exhibition 'Gaya, a World Heritage Site,'
various special exhibitions are held seasonally.
Currently, the Hittite exhibition, which introduces the Hittite culture,
the earliest iron civilization in human history, for the first time in Korea, is in progress.

With photo zone operation, participatory exhibitions, and souvenir provision,
it can be said to be Gimhae's representative museum that approaches citizens in various ways
so that they can easily access and understand the history.
Third Tourist Spot
Gimhae Suro Royal Tomb
As the tomb of King Suro, the founder of the Garak Kingdom (Geumgwan Gaya),
Gimhae Suro Royal Tomb, a symbolic cultural heritage of Gimhae,
is not only culturally and historically valuable,
but also has a serene atmosphere felt from the Korean-style roof and stone wall path,
making it known as a popular walking spot for many citizens.
The Gimhae Suro Royal Tomb, which becomes more beautiful
with trumpet creepers in the summer and autumn foliage in the fall,
is a resting space for citizens where they can enjoy the scenery and take pictures.
Near here are Daeseongdong Tumuli, Gimhae Suro Royal Tomb, and Gimhae National Museum,
so you can enjoy a Gaya history tour course.
Fourth Tourist Spot

Gimhae's representative urban park, Yeonji Park,
▫️ is a healing park for taking walks with a lake with fountains in various places and
▫️ a walking path created around the lake.
The lake, trees, and buildings are harmoniously combined,
and with flat terrain and a wide lawn,
it is famous as a date spot and picnic spot.

Sixth Tourist Spot
Daeseongdong Tumuli
The Daeseongdong Tumuli, the core tumuli of the early Gaya period,
which was the 16th site in Korea to be listed as a 'UNESCO World Heritage Site,'
is a relic of the tombs of King Suro's descendants,
revealing the establishment, development, politics, social structure, and external relations of Gaya,
making it uniquely valuable in understanding Gaya.
With gentle hills and lush green trees without slopes,
it is also popular as a great place to take photos and a great place to take a walk.
Right next to it is the Daeseongdong Tumuli Museum,
which exhibits relics and materials excavated from the Daeseongdong Tumuli,
so you can check the excellence of Gaya culture,
so I highly recommend visiting together!
Seventh Tourist Spot
Bonghwangdae-gil Road
Bonghwangdae-gil Road was originally a quiet residential area, but old houses were renovated
and restaurants, cafes, accessory shops, and clothing stores decorated with various menus and concepts were built,
reborn as a commercial district with a unique sensibility.
▫️ Rather than building new buildings, old houses are repaired or only the interior is decorated,
▫️ and the stores that used to operate are still there,
so you can fully feel the harmony of old and new and the retro sensibility.
It is an MZ generation hot spot where you can feel the vitality 365 days a year with various unique stores in every alley!
