A place worth knowing

You do not need to collect every angle of the building. Walk around it once, notice how the surfaces change with the light, and choose an exhibition only if the current programme interests you.

The public plaza and an exterior architecture walk are free. Indoor exhibitions, events and individual facilities have their own opening times and ticket conditions. This listing does not imply that a light festival or performance runs every night. Dongdaemun History & Culture Park station serves the site.
