Korea's Historical Relics Listed as World's Cultural Heritages
Pyongyang, June 24 (KCNA) -- It was decided at the 37th Meeting of the World Heritage Committee of the UNESCO to register historical relics in Kaesong City, the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, as world's cultural heritages.
Kaesong was a capital city of Koryo Dynasty (918-1392), the first unified state in Korea, for nearly 500 years.
More than 90 kinds of relics are preserved in the city.
Among the relics listed as world's heritages this time are the mausoleums of King Wang Kon (1st king) and King Kong Min (31st king), South Gate of Kaesong, Kaesong Walls, Sungyang School, Monument to Loyalty, Sonjuk Bridge, Koryo Songkyunkwan Academy, Manwol Pavilion, Kaesong Chomsongdae (astronomical observatory) and two groups of tombs.
The mausoleum of King Kong Min is, in particular, preserved in original state. It is an earth-covered stone grave with remains of the king and the queen buried in it. The grave is believed to be built from 1365 to 1372 at the initiative of King Kong Min.
The group of Myongrung tombs is located in a row, three of which stand at intervals of 25 meters or 50 meters respectively between the mausoleums of kings Kong Min and Wang Kon.
The group of seven tombs is located at the foot of Mt. Mansu in Haeson-ri.
The tombs were robbed by the Japanese invaders during their colonial rule over Korea.
Believed to be built in 1391-1393, the South Gate, situated in the heart of Kaesong City, was burnt by the U.S. bombing in December 1950 during the Korean War (1950-1953), but it was restored to original state in 1954.
The relics give a glimpse of the development of the national culture in the period of the dynasty.
Tourists from Switzerland, the Netherlands, Britain and other countries are coming to the city to see the relics.
The recent registration of 12 kinds of relics as the world's heritages, in the wake of the registration of the Koguryo tomb murals at the 28th Meeting held in China in 2004, raises the Korean people's national pride.

Nat'l museum unveils 'Goryeo: The Glory of Korea' in Seoul
찬란했던 고려의 귀환...건국 1100주년 기념 대고려전 918•2018
The National Museum of Korea is holding a special exhibition to celebrate 11-hundred years since the founding of the Goryeo Dynasty.
The museum hoped to display the Statue of Wang Geon, which belongs to North Korea, but it is still waiting for Pyeongyang to lend the statue to Seoul.
Yoon Jung-min provides a glimpse of what to expect.
2018 marks 11-hundred years since the medieval Korean kingdom of Goryeo was founded. To commemorate the anniversary, the National Museum of Korea is hosting a special exhibition Goryeo: The Glory of Korea from December 4th until March 3rd next year.
The exhibition introduces masterpieces and items used in the royal palace as well as pieces of Buddhist art.
Founded in 918, Goryeo prospered on the Korean peninsula until 1392.
The dynasty traded with foreign countries and was so well known to foreigners that the roots of the word Korea come from the word Goryeo.
Amid the rapidly changing situation in East Asia, Goryeo lasted as a kingdom for 475 years. To celebrate 11-hundred years since its foundation, 450 relics from museums and institutions around the world have been brought all the way to Seoul for this exhibition.
The exhibition shows the empire's artistic accomplishments through paintings, pottery and sculptures which were made from the delicate touch of the craftsmen of the time.
As Buddhism prospered, Goryeo left many pieces of religious art, such as the painting of the Amitabha Buddha.
It was impressive to witness the technology and culture of Goryeo. I was proud. It's good that I saw what I'd learned in textbooks right before my eyes.
An empty glass case sits right next to the statue of Master Huirang,... who was a spiritual mentor of Wang Geon, the founder of Goryeo.
The national museum originally planned to display the Statue of Wang Geon which belongs to North Korea,... but the statue is still in Pyeongyang right now.
During the first inter-Korean summit, South Korean President Moon Jae-in asked his North Korean counterpart Kim Jong-un to send cultural relics for the exhibition from the North, including the statue.
Chairman Kim agreed to cooperate then, but Pyeongyang has not sent the relics yet.
The museum left the space empty in the hope that the relics can be added some time during the exhibition.
