The Gimhae Hanok Experience Hall is a “hanok” stay that showcases the beauty and elegance of Korean culture. It has seven buildings in total. Anchae, Sarangchae, Byeolchae, Haengnangchae, Bakkatchae, Heotganchae, and Sadang contains 13 rooms that can house around 2–3 or 4–5 people. Rooms in Anchae, Sarangchae, and Byeolchae have different characteristics and can be chosen according to one’s preferences. The eight Anchae rooms are decorated with antique furniture, seat cushions, traditional letter holders, and lamps, recreating the daily lives of Koreans in the past. The wide “daecheongmaru” raised floor can be used as a meeting room as well. Sarangchae is smaller and more unassuming than the Anchae, but the “numaru” raised floor with a sofa and a table offers a great place to rest and enjoy the scenery. Meanwhile, the Wolpa and Hamheo rooms of Byeolchae offer the most authentic sight in the complex with a large screen and “boryo” (thick quilt laid out on the floor as a seat), which is similar to a scene out of historical dramas. Even though the rooms follow traditional construction to a T, they are all equipped with modern amenities like TVs, refrigerators, air-conditioning, and restrooms for convenience. The management also offers traditional cultural programs often and provides services in English and Japanese for foreign visitors. |
