Overview
Museongseowon Confucian Academy was built in 1615 to honor Silla's scholar Choe Chiwon (857-?). An important cultural heritage for understanding the principles of Confucianism and culture of the Joseon dynasty, it is recognized as a representative example of seowon architecture and listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The traditional architecture still remains, and the surrounding scenery, including old ginkgo trees, is beautiful.
