Today I went to Chogyesa Museum. We study about Shilla. I think Bulgugsa, Seokgulam, Dabotap and Seokgatap are very nice places to see.

Kim Dae-Sung made Bulgugsa and Seokgulam. Bulgugsa was for his present parents and Seokgulam was for ancesters. Dabotap and Seokgatap are in Bulgugsa, but Asadal made them.

Asadal had a wife named Asanyeo. There is a legend about this couple. One day, Asadal went to Bulgugsa to make Dabotap and Seokgatap, but Asanyeo couldn¡¯t meet her husband for a long time. When she visited a monk and asked to see her husband, The monk said ¡°You can see Asadal when the shadow of the pagodas reached the pond down below the temple¡±. So Asanyeo waited and waited beside the pond. One day when she saw Asadal in the pond, She went into the pond and she died. Few days later Asadal knew the fact and went to the pond. And he cried and cried. But it was too late to save her. When I heard about this story I was a little sad.

I think shilla had interesting history and many historical places.
