Balhae Gallery, National Museum of Korea

An exhibition space for Balhae artifacts at the National Museum of Korea in Yongsan, Seoul, one of the very few places in the country where Balhae relics can be viewed. Most of the major Balhae sites, including its capital and tombs, lie within present-day China and Russia, making them inaccessible within Korea. Here, artifacts such as Buddhist statues, roof tiles, and pottery offer a glimpse into Balhae culture. It is a meaningful space that keeps alive the memory of Balhae, founded by Dae Joyeong, as part of Korean history.
