KAI Aerospace Museum

Reviewed By James48843

One of the very few places in the world to see an intact B-29 bomber, and also has one of just seven remaining C-124 Globemaster II airplanes. This is a comprehensive collection of both korean-made aircraft, and mostly US made aircraft, mostly having been flown either by Korean Air Forces, or in support of korea's defense. If you are a history buff, especially an aviation history buff, this place is a must-see.

Tongyeong Traditional Craft Museum

Reviewed By JoeyChai1210

This place gives you more insights on the traditional Korean handcrafts--where the decoratives is made from the pearl and abalone shells. The shells are carefully selected and well-processed, which is why it's costly as compared to the normal hand crafts. There are actually one-day class for making hand-mirror wth shells here in this museum, which is quite a new and nice experience for me.
