On Saturday morning, which was Chuseok day, we took an early morning walk to the coast of Ulsan to Ulgi Park, which was a coastline park. There was a part of the park called Daewangam Rock, of which several large rocks seemed to rise up from the beautiful clear waters of the sea. It was a pretty gorgeous sight.
Later on that day, we went to Aaron's aunt and uncles house, where they set up all the food as an offering for the ancestors, as a traditional chuseok prayer, which was pretty interesting. Afterwards, we all enjoyed the food as well.
Finally, on the rest of Saturday, we drove to Gyeongju, which was known as the "museum without walls" because of all the temples and shrines and tombs from the Silla empire. We visited a few different places: Imhaejeon Site, Tumuli Park, Seokguram Grotto, and Bulguska Temple.
On Sunday, we visited the Unmunsa Temple, which was a temple for women. It it was pretty scenic, situated near some mountains, and had some interesting paintings and building architecture.
And then finally, on Sunday night, we went out with Aaron's mother, aunt, uncle, and cousins to sing at a Noraebang, and had a lot more fun than expected.
