"A musuem without walls"

We recently went on a weekend trip with some friends of ours to Gyeongju. This city is often referred to as a museum without walls. It was the center of the Silla dynasty and is littered with temples and tombs.



We rented bicycles and rode through rice paddies and toured the sites! Something about riding a bike makes you feel like a kid again, but the saddle ass reminds you of your progressing years!

We had beautiful weather, and the clear skies and fresh air were a much needed reprieve from the Seoul city suffocation. Living in the city is great and convenient and easy to get around with minimal Korean language skills, but it is refreshing to see the softer, greener, cleaner Korea!
