It was a wonderful sunny day. My first trip in Korea which put in me an unforgettable impression.
I enjoyed a lot with my friends from different countries of the world studying in Korea. We took pictures,
had very delicious Korean food, and saw some excellent piece of Korean traditional art. There were so
many Hanok. I really like Korean traditional house, called Hanok. To be very fact, this experience made me love Korean cultural assets more.
The Mask play of Hahoe Byeolsin exorcism that is made by wood. ''Yangban" mask is one of the masks used in the Korean traditional mask dance drama, famous in Hahoe village of Andong district, North Kyungsang
province. The lower class satirized the upper class by playing the role of "Yangban" (aristocrats of old
Korea) wearing this mask.
Using the Mask in an amazing art form. This is called performing art. Wow. Simply Great!
Enjoying the Folk play. Excellent! I have never enjoyed a folk play before. I am looking for a different folk play to see after this.
Together, We are and Together We will. Yes, Traditions will always be remembered as they are traditions. Hats off for keeping alive those traditions for some moments.
The two good friends from same major, same department and from same university in Mongolia and Korea as well. Friends for ever.

The picture in the background is of Nakdong River.We had the opportunity to visit this River which has played an extremely important role throughout the Korean History. The Nakdong river basin has been a favored dwelling-place for as long as people have inhabited Korea from Centuries. There are a no. of Neolithic remains have been found in the valley and it was a great moment visiting this River.
I was quite amazed to the picture with a Korean Maple tree in the background. It looks so natural and decorative having picture with a Maple tree in Korea. Especially, in the lap of Nature in a sunny day with reflection of sunlight to the leaves. I tried to get know the biological name of this Korean Maple and found it as " Acer Pseudosieboldianum".
Well its always nice to travel with friends, I have seen come very things during my visit to hahoe and often wish to share such kind of moment again.This trip was no exception and was full of funny moments with my friends. Many amazing things happened and we had enough time to interact and share so many things.It made Korea more important for me because of my friends who were also had immense pleasure exploring Hahoe.
