May 18th National Cemetery

One must visit here if she/he wants to know Korea truly.

A good place. Calm and clean, remote from the urban crowd. Parking place is large. All facilities available.

An absolute "must see" if you visit. Please be warned that he story of Gwanju's uprising is harrowing, yet hugely significant. The heart of the townspeople during the whole event is something that the community are very proud of. We were very lucky that upon arrival here we were greeted by a free guide who had lived through the uprising and gave us a personal account of his and his friend's and family's experience. He walked us through the park and showed us the graves of the known and unknown victims, the monuments and their significance, and guided us through the exhibition hall.

Quiet and sombre monument to the fallen during the suppression of democracy in the dark days of oppression.

그저 죄송하고 감사드립니다.. (국화꽃과 우산 준비해주신 관리자분들께도 감사드립니다)

민주화의 성지 망월동묘지에 다녀왔습니다

5.18 영령들이 계신곳에 참배하고 영상을 보고 민주주의를 지키기위해 목숨을 바치신 분들을 기리는 뜻깊은 자리가 되었음

그날을 생각하며 조용히 다녀왔습니다 간간히 참배객들도있었고 늘 말끔히 정리되있는 조용한곳입니다 아직도 그날에 아픔과 슬픔을 내가슴은 기억합니다 아버지묘소 찾아뵙고갑니다
