No fee. A park on poops and toilet during the old days. The only problem is the location, not close to the other suwon attractions.

I found this such an interesting place. I read a little of the life of the man behind it and I think that helps with perspective. My young kids loved it, especially the kids museum/exhibit on the second floor of the cultural center across the street.

Ok, maybe I have the mentality of a toddler, but this place was brilliant! I took my 3 year old, who absolutely loved it. It’s in two parts - one is the house with the history, and some activities that are more aimed at kids of 5+, and the other is a children’s activity zone across the road in the cultural centre which is brilliant for kids from 18 months up.

This museum is connected to an organization that promotes sanitary infrastructure worldwide so that is admirable. I wouldn’t make a special trip just to attend this place, if you’re already close by make a stop. …

It’s really small... photos online make it look huge. Passed by as we were nearby for a few hours, but there’s nothing really interesting about it. Son enjoyed taking a couple of photos with giant poop, but didn’t complain when I said we’re leaving. At least it’s free though..... certainly not worth going out of your way to visit.…
