Yongin Korean Folk Village (1974) is a historical theme park that reproduces the daily life of the Joseon Dynasty and is famous as a complex cultural tourist spot where you can learn, experience and enjoy Korean traditional culture. Particularly, we participated in the '2015 Open Tourism Contest' project, and have led the improvement of convenience facilities to increase tourism accessibility for the tourist vulnerable (disabled people, the elderly, families with young children, etc.). This is a rare example for a private business, and it is a glimpse of the advanced companies that everyone dreams of happy tourism.

When entering the parking lot, the disabled parking area (40 pages) is located very close to the ticket office for easy access.

In addition, there are several standing signs indicating the location of the parking lot, so it is easy to check even from a distance, and it is possible to check the parking area for the disabled even after the vehicle is parked.

Consideration for the visually impaired using public transportation is also noticeable. Braille blocks were installed on the pedestrian path from the bus and taxi stops to the entrance where the ticket counters were located, so that they could arrive at the front door comfortably.

In addition, a toilet for tourists with disabilities is installed outside the front door and a braille block is placed in front of it to help the visually impaired.

The ticket counter was made lower than the normal counter to match the eye level of the disabled wheelchair users.

On the right side of the ticket office, there is a general information bulletin to help the blind understand.

In addition, a ramp was installed at the entrance of the unmanned ticket machine opposite to it, so that families with disabilities in wheelchairs or infants using strollers could access it comfortably.

If you cut the ticket and enter the front door, a leaflet for the disabled is available. Courses that facilitate the movement of the elderly or wheelchairs are meticulously displayed, making it easy to understand the arrangement of traffic lines and buildings.

An audio guide terminal is available in the duty room on the left side of the front door to help guide tourists with visual impairments.

This is an alternative service according to the commentary's non-resident, and you can listen to detailed descriptions of the Joseon Dynasty buildings and traditional culture experiences in folk villages. (Rental 2000 won)

In the Korean Folk Village, 99 farmhouses, Gwan-a, Seowon, Oriental Medicine Room, Seodang, Blacksmithing, and Organic Workshop, including farmhouses and private houses with distinct characteristics of each region in the late Joseon Dynasty, are reproduced in their original form.

The journey to the village of the Joseon Dynasty begins with a paper with a wish written on it. When you enter the village, the first thing you meet is Hyojamun. It was built in honor of Hyoja Lee Duk-gyu's filial piety, but it was said to have been put on the road where many people deliberately intended to serve as a good example.

Yangbanga, one of the most popular places in the folk village, is said to have moved the building in Suwon Castle in 1861.

You can see the typical living space of the upper class who worshiped Confucianism such as Sotdaemun, Joulehaengrang, Outside Love, Anhaengrang, Ansarang, Naedang, and Chodang.

If you go deep through the yard, you can see a thatched house that doesn't go well with the Yangban house. This is a space where the Gyusu of Yangban family learned the simplicity and had a bridal class.

You can get a glimpse of the ancestors of the ancestors who did not forget the frugal life of ancestors, while having the appearance of an imposing family.

At Yangbanjip courtyard, traditional weddings are reproduced twice a day at 12 and 4 pm every day. At the end of the wedding, you can also see a new parade where the bride rides to the house.

Gwan-ah is also a popular place for people to drop by. A ramp is installed next to the entrance to the front door, so visitors with wheelchairs or strollers can comfortably view it.

In the performance hall in front of Gwan-a, there are exciting play boards such as Nongak and Masang Martial Arts. A part of the grandstand was prepared as a wheelchair-only seat so that tourists with disabilities could sit down with their guardians and enjoy the performance.

After hanging out, let's go to the marketplace. There are plenty of seats with ramps for wheelchair or stroller access. After sitting in a sunny place and drinking a cup of sweet Dongdongju in a crispy pancake, there is nothing to envy the world.

There is also a restaurant (Korean pavilion) in Sanga village that can fill your hunger. There are plenty of ramps in the entrance of drinks vending machines as well as restaurants, so it is easy to access.

When you pass the workshop street and head to the Oriental Medicine Room, there is a newly remodeled handicapped toilet (slope, braille block, braille guide plate, wheelchair rotation space, auxiliary handle installation, automatic door installation, etc.).

Including this, there are five toilets for the disabled in the Korean Folk Village.

In addition, the Korean Folk Village is a fun place to discover. Vegetables planted among private houses, cockscombs and chapels that bloom in the corner of the yard, gourd vines, duck families who enjoy the weight, and carp swarms of adult forearms.

If you enjoy even making a mask or dyeing, the day will pass.

You will be immersed in a simple mood and look around here and there. Finally, you will meet Seonangdang, the patron goddess of the village.

You may wish to stand under the tree for a moment and recall the hearts of the old ancestors and wish the well-being of the village.
