Daegu Medicinal Herb Wholesale Market, also known as Daegu Yangnyeongsi, is a major herbal medicine market specializing in the practices of Oriental medicine. The market dates all the way back to the Joseon dynasty, when the governor of Gyeongsang-do at that time supplied the best medicinal herbs to the central administrative office and sold the rest to the commoners. Among the many cities that served as suppliers of herbal medicine, Daegu survived as the longest and remained the most active. Until 1910, Daegu was at the center of the herbal medicine world, providing Oriental medicine to travelers from all around the world including Japan, China, Russia, Manchuria and many other countries. Even to this day, Daegu Yangnyeongsi continues to supply herbal medicine across the country and preserve the traditional medicine culture that has been passed down for over 350 years.
