King Tutankhamun Exhibition Gwacheon National Science Museum Seoul South Korea

In the weekend on Childrens Day here in Korea I went to the National Science Museum to check out the King Tutankhamun Exhibition that is being held there. Originally it was supposed to end in February but has been extended until the 13th of May 2012 (So that means you have one week left to get down there and see it).

It costs 12,000 won per adult but it is worth it to see all the treasures there and it is possible to take photographs in the main area and you wont need a flash. I was very impressed with all the artifacts and it is nicely set out so you can view things from every angle there. As this is the last week I would expect that it should not be crowded and I was surprised that it was not crowded on Saturday (childrens day) but I did arrive fairly early.

Anyway here are a couple of links that should help you out:

So to get there:

Take line 4 to Seoul Grand Park Station. Exit number 5 and walk toward the National Science Museums main entrance. You will see the entrance to the King Tutankhamun Exhibition on your left.

Here are a few pictures and a youtube slideshow to give you an idea of what you can see there:

Ok so last week I discovered that the Ansan Airshow has been postponed until fall or autumn but there was conflicting information about that. So I found 2 more internet sites that are more reliable so you can keep an eye on them for more accurate data:

Hopefully next week I will have a great report for you on the "Dream Concert" that will be held this weekend with all the most famous k-pop bands in Korea. So fingers crossed :)

Well that all for this week. Have a fantastic time until we meet again! :)
