National Museum of Korea

This museum is an absolute delight! Inside and out! The setting is gorgeous and the inside is laid out across 3 levels spanning all of Korea's historic periods and you even have sections about Japanese, Roman, Greek, Indian and other Asian periods. The entrance is free which is a plus! There are several cafes inside the building and relaxing areas for when you want to take a break from learning!

This museum is beautiful. This museum does not cover contemporary history, but shows a lot of the history of ancient Korea. The set up is amazing and I highly recommend the free English tour. It made my visit so much more meaningful. I love the little robots they have roaming around to help as well.

I had a great time visiting the museum. It was very big. If you go, I would advice to go early and spend as much time there. When I visit South Korea, I will definitely go again. It was so beautiful. You don't need ticket at the time I went to visit the main museum.

We had a lucky day. First of all, we were able to get in without waiting at all. Second, it was totally free to enter. We didn't have to buy tickets or pay money while in there AT ALL. And third, it was really fun. Even though it was free, some people might not expect much but instead, it was the opposite. There was so many things to look at, and we learned so many new things about South Korea that we've never known before! And we even saw a special show that was really realistic and memorizing.

Very informative and interesting exhibits, great for learning about Korean history. Signage is in both Korean and English and various guided tours are available. Found it beneficial to visit before visiting palaces and historical sites to gain a greater understanding of the context and history. Easy to get to on the subway, the surrounding park is beautiful, and entrance is free!

The National Museum of Korea is a must-visit for anyone interested in history and culture. The exhibits are well-organized, covering everything from ancient artifacts to modern art. The building itself is impressive, with beautiful architecture and peaceful outdoor spaces. It’s a great place to spend a few hours exploring Korea’s rich heritage. It is free access for tourist , and there is restaurant and cafeteria there , outside there is a wonderful lake with stunning view! Highly recommend!

It's free entry. And it has a really good gift shop that included special BTS merchandise. I found it really relaxing. Usually I lose my attention at museums but I found this one really enjoyable, especially since I visited on a rainy day. There's a cafe on the second floor where you can get coffee or food. It's a lot of beautiful pottery and jewelry and artwork and furniture. And the space is really beautiful. Plus from the cafe you can get a really good view of Seoul Tower

I can't believe this is free! I felt like I got so much value from this museum. It's wild to me that they don't charge even a small admission fee. There are three levels with what felt like 30 individual exhibits in their regular displays. The architecture of the building was lovely, and the design choices for their exhibits were stylish and effective. They had many beautiful pieces on display, lots of pottery and woodwork. There is ample seating throughout the building, which comes in handy as you will need a short break at some point. It's definitely something I would recommend to those who enjoy visiting museums/galleries, etc.
