Points included in this audio guide
Banwolseong Earthen Walls
The earthen walls of Banwolseong are the most distinctive remains of the ancient Silla palace complex in Gyeongju. The distinctive crescent-shaped ramparts, which gave the fortress its name—meaning 'half-moon fortress'—still define the park's layout today. You can walk the perimeter and trace the original outline, which was ingeniously designed to follow the natural contours of the land. This is a significant what to see for anyone interested in Korean historical architecture.
Archery Range
The archery range sits within Wolseong Historic Park, a site layered with Gyeongju's complex history. Originally the location of Silla's royal palace, this ground was later reinterpreted during the Joseon dynasty, whose cultural elements—including traditional archery—now feature prominently in the park. The facility allows visitors to experience a practice central to Korean aristocratic tradition, offering a tangible connection to centuries of court life and martial heritage at this historically significant venue.
