There is a saying, "Life is a travel." Traveling in Gyeongju begins with visiting the town's royal tombs that are as big as a small mountain. Looking deep into the slowly accumulated time embodied in the royal tombs, stone towers, stone Buddhas, and temple sites arouses unique inspiration and expands the window of thought. Sometimes, we find the dreams of future in the past. That is also the purpose of traveling Gyeongju, the city of history and culture. In the first volume, the book introduces the town area centering around the Daereungwon Ancient Tombs, Go-Bun Park, and historic sites in the whole area of the Cheomseongdae Observatory, as well as things to enjoy around the Bomun Tourist Complex; Gyeongju EXPO, Gyeongju Folk Craft Village, etc. on Bobul-ro; and the Haeparang Road that stretches from Yangnam to Gampo.
