The grand, marble-lined, modernist National Museum of Korea displays ancient treasures - you're first faced with the Goryeo-dynasty Ten-Storey Pagoda carved from marble
The ceramics are a highlight
as are ceremonial temple bells
and examples of decorative tiles which are placed at the end of timbers across roofs
We saw the old wall from the Namsam tower on Saturday morning, and we found it with the Dongdaenum Gate
Nearby is the Design Park where there are thousands of white "roses" with LED centres (sadly we weren't there for light-up time but they're still pretty impressive)
