Museum trip to see, hear, learn and experience

For children, a trip to an art museum is both playful and educational. Children view, think, and learn on their own. The first stop on an art museum trip is the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Gwacheon. You can meet various visual arts such as architecture, design, craft, and photography, and the wide outdoor sculpture garden, trails, and dense forest are perfect for picnics. The Ho-Am Museum of Art is a place for learning about the outstanding aesthetic sense and artistic talent of our ancestors through antiques. Each piece represents Korean art, so it is helpful for studying history. In Heewon, an outdoor garden, you can enjoy the beauty of a traditional Korean garden that adapts to nature based on the principle of borrowed scenery (借景, bringing the surrounding landscape into the garden). At the Nam June Paik Art Center, you can see the unique artistic world of Nam June Paik, a pioneer in video art, and compare the past and present household items at the Amorepacific Museum of Art. Youngeun Museum of Art provides opportunities to become familiar with art while learning and creating through various educational programs.
