Yun Seon-do Historic Site in Geumswaedong in detail
Yun Seon-do Historic Site in Geumswaedong: a mountaintop garden named after a dream
The name Geumswaedong comes from 1640, when Yun Seon-do, then 54, obtained a 'golden-locked stone chest' in a dream and, a few days later, found a place that matched the dream exactly. The top of the mountain is shaped like a basin. Gosan made it his retreat and laid out a garden with ponds and pavilions. Within the site are also Gosan's memorial hall and Yun Seon-do's tomb.
