Woljeonggyo Bridge
Opened in 2003, this bridge is the longest brigde made of wood in Korea (it's 387m long).
There is a legend about the Woljeonggyo Bridge about a wife who made a pair of Mituri (hemp shoes) out of her hair after her husband died. In commemoration for her pure and noble love, the bridge was designed in the Mituri style.
It's also called the "Rich Man"'s house or "Choe's house".
It offers good views of the old village in Gyeongju and during spring and summer, there are fountains shows three times a day that you can watch from the bridge.
Views are better at night. Free entrance.
