We were in Gyeongju on a day trip and had earlier visited Woljeonggyo Bridge. Going across the bridge, you will come to Gyochon Village where the an old school and traditional houses are. You can still see the old well that was providing water in the past. Quite a few of these houses are residential properties but some have been converted for various purposes, including Choe’s family home, which was built circa 1779, which the public can visited. This village should interest those who are into history and architecture. Good to combine this with a visited to Woljeonggyo Bridge.

This small village is a sublime slice of bygone days and ancient style of architecture. Some of the houses have been converted into tourist shops, but many have been retained as purely residential buildings to give the place a bit more authenticity. The vast majority of the buildings have retained their traditional Korean hanok style of architecture. It’s worth visiting if you’re already visiting Cheonmachong, the Gyeongju Historic Site or Woljeonggyo Bridge.

This place is pretty nice, but it's far from the best that Gyeong-Ju has to offer. One of its good points is that it's centrally located, so if you're seeing Woljeong Bridge and the tumuli and Cheomseongdae, you can easily go here, too. There are good pictures to be taken, but there isn't much signage to explain any of the buildings. There's a nice little cafe or two on the grounds, as well as some restaurants.
