Korean Folk Village Map and Brochure (2025 – 2017)
Built around a winding stream and rustic bridges, the Korean Folk Village blends Joseon-era architecture with a living, breathing open-air museum. Its pathways twist through artisan workshops, performance stages, and folk gardens, so a Korean Folk Village map is essential to keep bearings between the farmer’s market stalls and the tight alleys near the Confucian school. The map also points out dining courtyards, shuttle stops, and show arenas—handy when the afternoon drum parade packs the central square.

Pause by the stone bridge at sunset; it’s the village’s quietest moment before the lamps glow and visitors drift toward the evening dance.
