- Caption / Description:
-
A buddha statue sits in a small area above a pile of rocks at the Korean Folk Village, in Gyeonggi-do province, South Korea. The village aims to recreate life around the late Joseon period, when Korean faith consisted of a mix of Shamanism, Buddhism, and Confucianism.
The Korean Folk village was set up by the South Korean government in 1973 in an effort to preserve and promote the history of Korea. Open all year round, the Folk village receives around 1.8 million visitors each year.
