🇰🇷 On your trip to Korea, try a traditional female medical practitioner's outfit as well as hanbok!
On this visit, I went to the Seoul Yangnyeongsi Herb Medicine Museum in Yangnyeongsi, Seoul. It is one of the most fragrant places I have visited recently, with the aroma of herbs throughout the museum 🌿
Walking into the exhibition hall in traditional medical attire feels like stepping straight into ancient Korea. A light herbal fragrance fills the museum. The exhibits cover Korean herbal medicine and traditional knowledge from ancient times to the present. You can also see medicinal ingredients up close and try a Korean foot bath and medicinal tea 🫖.
Walking into the exhibition hall in traditional medical attire feels like traveling back to ancient Korea. Every corner is photogenic and atmospheric 📸.
I expected a boring museum, but found a calming space full of fragrance and tranquility💆🏻♀️
Next time you visit Seoul, try wearing a traditional female medical practitioner's outfit. Experience another side of traditional Korean culture 💊🌿
