La campana del rey Seongdeok, la más grande de toda Corea actualmente, mide 3,75 metros de alto, y un diámetro de 2,27 metros, y 11-25 centímetros de grosor. En 1997, el Museo Nacional de Gyeongju comprobaron que pesaba 18,9 toneladas. La campana fue hecha para rendir homenaje en memoria del rey Seongdeok. Se terminó en el año 771 y le dieron el nombre de "La Campana Divina del rey Seongdeok". Sin embargo, debido a que la campana se colocó en el templo Bongdeoksa, también se la conocía como la campana de Bongdeoksa. Su otro nombre por la cual es conocida es la Campana Emile, que proviene de una leyenda antigua en la que un niño fue sacrificado para dar sonido a la campana, de los que sus ecos "em-eeh-leh", se parecen a la palabra coreana tradicional para "mamá".

El sonido tubular del tubo en la parte superior de la campana que ayuda a que el sonido resuene es una característica única que se puede encontrar sólo en las campanas de Corea. El yongnyu, que servía como bucle para colgar la campana, fue decorado para parecerse a la cabeza de un dragón. Se puede encontrar una banda de arabescos en el hombro, y en el punto de la campana se aprecia la forma de una flor de loto. El magnífico diseño y los métodos de inscripción usados en la campana ejemplifican el gran arte de los artistas de la época de Silla unificada. La campana también tiene inscritos más de mil caracteres chinos, y su belleza y integridad han sido preservados cuidadosamente a pesar del paso de más de 1.300 años.

La Calle Hwangnidan-gil fue conocida originalmente como "Hwangnam Keungil", cerca de la calle Poseok-ro, barrio de Hwangnam-dong de Gyeongju. Su nombre proviene de la combinación de las calles Hwangnam-dong y Gyeongnidan en Itaewon, Seúl, por lo que vendría a significar "la Calle Gyeongnidan-gil de Hwangnam-dong". La calle alberga numerosos restaurantes, cafeterías, estudios fotográficos y tiendas ubicadas en edificios tradicionales hanok, lo que la ha hecho popular entre las generaciones más jóvenes de Corea. La calle también muestra una estética newtro debido a los edificios antiguos y deteriorados que aún se conservan, construidos durante las décadas de 1960 y 1970. La Calle Hwangnidan-gil está cerca del Observatorio Cheomseongdae, las Tumbas Antiguas de Daereungwon y otros importantes lugares turísticos, lo que la ha convertido también en una atracción popular de Gyeongju.

En Gyeongju, en el parque Daereungwon, se pueden observar las grandes tumbas de monarcas y nobles del reino de Silla. Dentro de este parque se sitúan 23 tumbas enormes, entre las cuales se destacan las tumbas Cheonmachong y Hwangnamdaechong, las más grandes y antiguas. En una exploración y excavación del área, realizada en 1970, se descubrió la tumba Cheonmachong, dentro de la que se halló una pintura antigua de un caballo celestial. Esta pintura es la única descubierta de los antiguos tiempos de la dinastía Silla. Dentro de esta tumba se encontraron 11.526 reliquias y coronas del monarca, que fueron trasladadas al museo. Todos estos objetos muestran la vida lujosa que llevaban los reyes de aquella época. Otra atracción turística es la tumba Hwangnamdaechong, que es el enterramiento antiguo más grande. Era un sepulcro matrimonial y en su interior se hallaron los restos del rey y la reina, con más de 30.000 accesorios y adornos de oro. El aspecto más destacable de la tumba Hwangnamdaechong es que en el sepulcro de la reina se encontraron más adornos lujosos que en el del rey. De hecho, los investigadores llegaron a la conclusión de que la reina podía ostentar una alta posición social aún antes del matrimonio real, y la jerarquía de la mujer en aquellos tiempos era muy respetada. Recorriendo estas tumbas, podrá vivir en carne propia la cultura antigua, de más de 1.500 años de historia.

When Hwangnam Bread was created in Hwangnam-dong, Gyeongju, in 1939, people began to refer to it as “the bread from Hwangnam.” Over time, the name stuck. The late Choi Yeong-hwa, the founder of Hwangnam Bread, was a scion of the Gyeongju Choi family who came up with this masterpiece when he was 21 years old after much trial and error. Mr. Choi’s creation is based on the tradition of rice cakes and bread made with sweet red beans, passed down throughout the generations in his family. Even today, 80 years after the creation of the bread, it is only flavored with red beans. Another defining feature of Hwangnam Bread is the delicate comb pattern inspired by the aesthetics of the Silla period.
