These were the grounds of the Kyoungbuk Palace, and the Folk Museum. We couldn't take pictures inside so these are some of the interesting things outside. This first one is kind of an altar, people pass by and add stones big or small to the mound. They then pray and hope that it is granted. The poles next to it is to keep away evil spirits. Since I was born in the year of the rooster, I took a pic with one, isn't it cute.
