See the lavish lifestyle, wealth, and resting places of the 1,500-year-old Silla dynasty at Daereungwon Tomb Complex. Twenty-three large grass covered tombs scatter around the minimalistically designed park, lending to it a relaxing ambiance. Enter the Cheonmachong tomb and admire kings' jewelry, crowns, decorations, and artifacts. The Hwangnamdaechong, the largest tomb, displays bodies of both king and queen, along with 30 personal items, gold, and relics. Replicas have replaced some artifacts, though you can find originals in the National Museum. Plan a trip to Gyeongju easily and quickly by telling Inspirock to suggest an itinerary.

This place is huge and worth staying because of its exotic and traditional view. There was a photo zone that was perfectly insta worthy haha. Beautiful indeed. There also was an exhibition hall...

Beautiful park dotted with large and small burial mounds from the Silla period 1500 years ago. Lovely to walk around as the tree foliage begins its autumnal journey from green to golden brown.

One of the must-visit sites when in Gyeongju. There are lots of tomb mounds in this area and you can go inside 천마종 which has artifacts and a recreation of the tomb. There is not that much info or exhibitions at the site, so I would suggest researching or going to the museum beforehand and it will give you more background to the site. I went to the museum first and then got a bus to the site later which worked well.
