La primera reliquia que se encontró en esta tumba es una corona de oro (que en coreano se dice “geumgwan”), que le dio su nombre.

Huewon is a cozy hanok guesthouse located in Seoak-dong, Gyeongju. Since Gyeongju had been the capital of the Silla Dynasty for about a thousand years, Huewon is surrounded by various cultural heritage sites such as Tomb of King Muyeol, Tomb of King Jinji, and Seoakseowon Confucian Academy with a serene atmosphere.
Built in the 1970s and renovated later, Huewon started its accommodations service around 2011. Entering the gate, one can see a square-shaped courtyard giving a very bright and warm impression, in the middle of which is an old beautiful magnolia tree that is popular among visitors.
The garden is well-arranged with flower trees and bonsai trees and decorated with vintage items such as an old well and a water pump. Behind the house, the surroundings along with the low-altitude Seondosan Mountain make for beautiful seasonal scenery.
This cozy and pleasant hanok house has been well-maintained with the will and care of the owner, preserving the traditional hanok features including columns, beams, and rafters of the ceiling that show traces of time past.
The guestrooms are bright and clean with a delicate fragrance. Aside from red clay walls and clean beddings, however, there are no other additional facilities such as BBQ set because the guesthouse seeks to offer guests a quiet, healthy, and stable environment.

In particular, the way to Dobongseodang Village School located behind Huewon is highly recommended by the host. Going up to the village school early morning, one is treated to a fantastic open view of Gyeongju in the fog. Moreover, Namsan Mountain, nicknamed Outdoor Museum since it is full of various Buddhist statues and towers here and there, is another recommended destination near the guesthouse.

Situado al pie del monte Hamwolsan, Golgulsa es el único templo en Corea construido en una cueva. En el siglo VI, San Gwang Yoo, acompañado de sus monjes procedentes de India, llevaron a cabo esta obra en una débil roca siguiendo una técnica arquitectónica india. En la parte superior del templo se encuentran las esculturas del Buda Maya Tathagata y alrededor estaban las 12 grutas empleadas como santuarios. Siete de ellas todavía siguen presentes hoy.
Las particularidades de Golgulsa son la escultura del Buda Maya Tathagata y la cueva Gwaneum. La escultura del Buda representa las características del Buda Silla, de 4 m de altura. Se puede observar en él un turbante, una cara de sonrisa tranquila, ojos rasgados, boca pequeña y nariz larga y fina. Con el fin de proteger la escultura del viento y de la lluvia se instaló una estructura de protección. La cueva de Gwaneum es el santuario más importante de las siete cuevas que aún existen. El Buda principal de esta cueva es el de la misericordia y las paredes de la cueva están dedicadas a sus 108 meditaciones. La cueva Gwaneum, con un muro de tejas sobre la fachada, da la impresión de ser un templo común. Sin embargo, una vez dentro, en el corazón, todo del techo a las paredes está cavado en la roca. Golgulsa es diferente de los demás templos. El camino que lleva al templo da vértigo como desde un acantilado. Cuerdas y barandillas rodean Golgulsa. La subida resulta escabrosa, con escaleras que llevan al fin a las cuevas, incluidas la de Gwangneum, Jijang y Yaksa. Solo se puede acceder al Buda Maya Tathagata una vez que se han sujetado con fuerza las cuerdas de seguridad y trepado las paredes de rocas y únicamente después de haber atravesado la cueva, una roca en medio del camino.
