Explanation

The building for Salt Gallery is the original stone-built salt storage in 1945, which remained intact. Previously a wooden storage for salt, it was later used as a warehouse for materials, and it is now transformed into a Salt Gallery after remodeling in 2007. The gallery was thought to a source of important historical data for salt farms since it remains the old scene from the past. Also, it offers a modern stone-built storage at this exhibition hall. The gallery exhibits everything about salt, from stories to anthropological aspects. In particular, the exhibition tries to break down the misunderstanding in which salt is thought to be the principal factor of diabetes and high blood pressure, and acknowledge the useful health benefits of salt by explaining the different types of salt uses. Beyond the general information on salt, the history behind salt is also explained. Also, daily lives of the people living in Taepyeong Salt Farm, the process of making salt and information about Hamcho (Salicornia herbacea salt) are also showcased in this gallery. - Modern Cultural Heritage No. 361 - Opening Date: July 14, 2007

The Korean Royal Silk Flower Museum is the place where visitors can admire and experience the royal flower arrangements that adorned the palaces during major national celebrations throughout the 500-year history of the Joseon dynasty. The royal floral arrangements of the Joseon dynasty, which bloomed magnificently during the Joseon era, were eradicated by Japan’s policy of eradicating Joseon court culture during the Japanese colonial period and had since existed only in historical records. However, Hwang Su-ro, a master of royal floral arrangements, has spent the past 50 years researching ancient texts to perfectly restore and recreate the Joseon dynasty’s royal court floral art. The Joseon dynasty court floral art, created for royal banquets, is made by dyeing silk, ramie, and paper with natural dyeing techniques, cutting them into petal shapes, and applying heat to set them; then, flower stamens are made from pine pollen and honey, and bees and butterflies are sculpted from beeswax. The Korean Royal Silk Flower Museum is built in the traditional palace style and consists of Surujae and Bihadaeng buildings. It houses an exhibition of Joseon dynasty royal floral artworks, historical documents, and production tools, as well as related artworks from the museum’s collection.
