100 years of breath met at Woori Bank Bank Museum Gwangtonggwan๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡ท

#AustraliaFlightEvent #museum #Myeongdong #WooriBank Yesterday afternoon, I visited Gwangtonggwan and entered a building with a history from 1909.. Something like a replica? The red brick and granite-decorated Baroque dome was overwhelming. While looking at the replica of the founding document of Daehan Cheonil Bank displayed in the hallway on the second floor, I savored the founding spirit of Emperor Gojong, who said that monetary lending was the basis of Sangmuheungwang!! ๐Ÿ“Œ Points for solo travelers Recommended experience: Gwangtonggwan VR Time Capsule โ†’ Virtually explore the building as it was when it was built in 1909 (10 minutes, free) Hidden spot: Behind the old safe on the first floor โ†’ Photo zone with traces of a fire in 1914 engraved on the wall Recommended snack: Cafe "Red Brick Latte" (6,500 won) next to the building โ†’ Add beet syrup in the color of Gwangtonggwan bricks ๐Ÿšจ Notes VR experience must be accepted before 5 p.m. Color distortion may occur when using the flash in the fire trace photo zone Be careful with clothing materials as the decorative pieces on the stair railing are sharp I put a piece of brick used during the 1915 restoration that I found on the basement level on my palm!! The rough surface conveys the 100 years of hardships lol I bought the Gwangtonggwan miniature kit (15,000 won), which is a limited-edition item, and I'm assembling the Baroque dome at home, and the delicate details are a historical lesson!!!
