Lonely Planet review for Bank of Korea Museum
The granite, chateaulike Bank of Korea, built in 1912, is an outstanding example of Japanese colonial architecture both inside and outside. The exhibits here include fascinating old coins such as knife money, WWI pottery coins, seashell money from Yap Island and Korean coins dating back 2000 years. Upstairs there are specimen notes from around the world.
