This is the Geumsan History and Culture Museum in South Chungcheong Province.

This is the Geumsan History and Culture Museum in Chungcheongnam-do. Geumsan is the southernmost part of Chungcheongnam-do, bordering Chungcheongbuk-do and Jeollabuk-do. It forms the largest mountain range in Chungcheongnam-do, including the highest peak, Seodaesan. The culture and arts of the Goryeo Dynasty developed rapidly due to the expansion of the aristocratic society and the flourishing of Buddhist thought. Based on the wealth accumulated through active trade activities, a splendid local culture blossomed. Porcelain, mother-of-pearl lacquerware, accessories, and daily necessities that mainly reflected the tastes of the aristocracy were produced, and various Buddhist-related crafts developed. Goryeo celadon, which represents aristocratic art, is characterized by its beautiful jade color. In the early days, it was mainly produced as pure celadon with a pattern engraved in relief or intaglio on the surface of the vessel, but after the 12th century, it developed into inlaid celadon, which expressed various patterns by engraving the pattern and filling it with white or black clay. Inlaid celadon is a special technique invented by the Goryeo people, and the Jeongja Sangjang Oranmu is the essence of Daebang Goryeo porcelain. Buddhist items include temple bells, bronze mirrors, bronze incense burners, and jeongbyeong. The temple bell inherited the form of the Silla bell, but gradually became smaller in size, reaching around 40 cm. Jeongbyeong was an offering tool for offering clean water to the Buddha, and was made of metal or porcelain. It shows the most sophisticated form and decoration among Buddhist items. After Joseon was founded in 1392, the country was divided into eight provinces, and the Geumsan area became part of Jeolla-do. The year after the foundation of the country, after Taejo's placenta was enshrined in Maninsan Mountain in Geumsan, the Jinsan area was promoted to Jinju-gun, and in 1413 (the 13th year of King Taejong's reign), it was confirmed as Jinsan-gun. At this time, Geumju-gun was also renamed Geumsan-gunsong, and the Geumsan area came to have two administrative districts, Geumsan and Jinsan, coexisting. The March 1st Movement was an anti-Japanese independence movement that began on March 1, 1919, in which the entire nation resisted Japanese colonial rule. As the spirit of resistance and the will for independence were heightened by the violent repression and suppression of the Japanese Empire, the reading of the Declaration of Independence by the 33 national representatives triggered the independence demonstrations and spread nationwide along the transportation routes. In Geumsan, independence demonstrations took place in various places from March 23 to 31, and the number of participants reached several hundred, but they were dispersed by the Japanese military suppression. Although the March 1st Movement failed, it became an opportunity for Japan to change its policy toward dividing the national spirit, and it had a great influence on the national movements in other colonial countries such as India, Egypt, and Turkey. After 1905, as the craze for modern education began nationwide, the first modern school, Geumshin School (now Geumsan Central Elementary School), was established in Geumsan Guest House in March 1907. Following this, Geumsan established the Christian Simgwang School in Sangok-ri, the private Myeongseong School in Pingchon-ri, Burimyeon, the private Jeonam School (now Jeonam Elementary School) in Jewonyeoksaek, and Gyeongang Private School in Geumseong-myeon. In Jinsan, the private Chuyeong School (now Jinsan Elementary School) was established at the site of Jinsanhyanggyo Myeongnyundang, and the Sarim Yukyeong School was established in Jibangri. However, most of them were closed due to lack of funds. During the Japanese colonial period, in order to eradicate the national spirit and foster savings workers, the private Geumsan School, Jeonam School, and Chuyeong School were converted to public schools, and later, according to the 1-myeon-1-school policy, 15 elementary educational institutions were established in Geumsan. In 1933, the first vocational school, Geumsan Agricultural Practical School (now Geumsan Industrial High School), was established, and in 1945, it was approved as Geumsan Public Agricultural High School. Based on the establishment and settlement of modern educational institutions, Geumsan currently has 16 elementary schools, 8 middle schools, and 4 high schools. 'Gunhyeonjido' is a map drawn with 'bu, mok, gun, and hyeon' as the basic units of local administration during the Joseon Dynasty. The development of 'gunhyeonjido', which was made with 'gunhyeon' as the unit, is the most significant characteristic of map production in the late Joseon Dynasty. The increase in the production of maps, the diversification of users, and the external changes in map production techniques and map forms are confirmed. Gunhyeonjido can be divided into various types according to the standard. The scale is different for each gunhyeon, so the direction, distance, area, and location are not accurate, but they are effective in conveying the local society's scene, such as the natural environment and the history, society, and economic content of the region. In addition, the map book is small in size, so it is easy to carry, and it has the advantage of being easily distributed to the public. Culture generally refers to all the lifestyles shared by a society, and includes all human products such as politics, economy, literature, art, morality, religion, and customs. Culture has the characteristics of universality and individuality. The universality of culture means that similar forms of culture are created beyond time and space even in different environments or conditions. #Domestic travel #Travel plan #February travel subsidy event
