Autumn in 민속촌 Korean Folk Village (part 2)

I loved the way the village is outlined and sketched (in the first place).
I mean, it does not have any paved street or roads. Instead, the dirt, rock, leaves, and all of the past-time ambiance and nuance are all right there.
It seemed like we were going back to the past with minor disruptions like: public telephone, ATM, automatic toilets, etc --which are OK considering this is --after all --a tourist area.^^
But, still..the atmosphere is somewhat different, once again, I am sure it was because I went there in Autumn.
Ducks freely goosing around a lake inside the village...
 
I wonder if it was how it looked in the past, suppose it was...what a tranquil place , indeed

A thatched-roof house with a watermill 

A stable with horses at large...

another angle of the colorful Autumn

One of the visage: donkeys used to be treasures, I guess.

A look out into a stable with horses around it...

A typical village road in Korea (back then)

I love the ways falling trees just scattered all over the place...just like that...

I would not have loved it, should it be in Summer:)^^

Autumn in Korean Folk Village - 민속촌 (part 1)

Friday, Nov. 4, 2011.
Autumn really soaked into my feeling.
Although my sentence seemed a bit odd and weird, I think it pretty much summed up the feeling I had inside me when I visited the 민속촌 or Korean Folk Village.
It was a good time to visit this traditionally kept village where villagers* still live there.
Autumn atmosphere greeted me when I set my feet there.


I was impressed by the tranquility of the lake (I am not sure whether it was man-made or nature-made stream).
One thing for sure, it was like a calm picturesque nature ....lost in time.
I guess it would not be this pretty in Summer. That's why I was impressed to visit this village during Autumn.
*  I just learned that the people are paid to live there. Well, somebody got to pay for them since it must be hard to be living the way they are in this modernity. After all, it is a tourist area.
