Baek In-je's House remains one of the few remaining modern-style traditional Korean houses in Seoul that provides a glimpse into the life of the early 20th-century Korean elite. The house dates to 1913 and features various Japanese elements, such as tatami rooms and wooden floors. The modern architectural touches include large glass windows as well as connected men's and women's quarters, which were kept strictly apart in traditional Korean houses. The museum sits on elevated grounds offering views over the village. Stroll around the spacious garden to fully appreciate the tranquility of the place.

Beautiful and relaxing. Quite hidden even though it’s just one street if all the main streets away. Definitely recommended. It’s a quick stop once you’re in the area - last entry is 5:30. It’s so relaxing and the house is beautiful. Good for pictures as well 💖 Free entrance - they have guided tours for free as well

Tranquil and amazingly beautiful traditional houses. Mesmerized by beauty of the old Korean lifestyles. 고즈넉함에 매료되다.
