Lonely Planet review for Gwangju Folk Museum
From the Gwangju National Museum take a 15-minute walk through a tunnel under the expressway to Gwangju Folk Museum. It uses dioramas, models, sound effects, videos and more to show off Jeollanam-do's traditional culture, from music to medicine, from toys to armour. Historical photographs at the end reveal how quickly Koreans have morphed from feudal farmers to 21st century whiz kids.
Around the Folk Museum is a pleasant park that contains the Biennale Exhibition Hall. Walk back down through the park to the Gwangju Art Museum and the bus stop.
