Chunghyo 2-gil 44-7, Gyeongju-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do.

La tumba del general Kim Yushin (595-673) está designado como Sitio Histórico. Se localiza en una escénica área llena de pinos en la colina este del monte Songha. Conocido como el héroe de la dinastía Silla, el general Kim Yushin fue el biznieto del rey Guhae, el último rey de la dinastía Gaya Geumgwan, y el hijo de Seo Hyeon, el gran general de la dinastía Silla. Yushin se alisto a los Hwarang (cuerpo de militares jóvenes aristócratas) a los 15 y empezó a soñar maneras para unificar la península de los Tres Reinos. Kim Yushin ganó su apoyo político mediante el establecimiento de una sólida relación con el noble Kim Chunchu y se hizo un nombre por sí mismo a través de su valor en el campo de batalla.

Cuando Kim Chunchu ascendió al trono como el 29º rey de la dinastía Silla (cambiando su nombre por rey Muyeol), Kim Yushin emergió de las filas y fue ascendido finalmente a la posición de Sangdaedeung (en el año 660, séptimo año del rey Muyeol). Kim Yushin, luego pasó a la derrota de Baekje en cooperación con la dinastía Tang, también más adelante la conquista de Goguryeo (año 668). La dinastía Tang, se volvió en contra de Silla tras la caída de Goguryeo, pero fue derrotado por el ejército de Kim Yushin junto con la armada de Goguryeo y Baekje. Con la caída de Tang, Kim Yushin finalmente realizó su sueño y unificó los tres reinos y fue nombrado al más alto puesto del gobierno de Silla en honor de su hazaña heroica.

La tumba del general Kim Yushin es una larga tumba que mide unos 30 metros de diámetro. Los relieves de los 12 dioses del zodiaco orientales (mitad hombre, mitad animal) hacen de guardianes alrededor de la tumba, blandiendo de armas. La tumba es la segunda en grandeza. Lo más importante de Yushin fue la contribución a la unificación de los Tres Reinos.

El camino hacia la tumba es un recorrido que no se puede escapar. Este camino tiene el nombre de Heungmuro, y ha sido seleccionado como uno de los 100 caminos más atractivos de Corea. El camino está lleno de cerezos en primavera y es famoso por ser un gran lugar para pasear o pasar en coche.

Se levanta sobre una roca cerca de un arroyo, y Poseokjeong (superficie de 7.432 ㎡) fue designado monumento privado nº 1 el 21 de enero de 1963. La ubicación es la que había tenido el palacio de la villa real de la dinastía Silla (57 a.C.-935), pero las edificaciones ya no existen más y solo queda en el lugar un trayecto de agua con una roca de forma de concha. Poseokjeong fue denominado de esta forma porque las canaletas de la roca se semejaban a las rugosas conchas de abulón. Poseokjeong está construido con 63 rocas. Tiene un ancho de 35 cm, y una profundidad media de 26 cm, y la longitud total alcanza los 10 metros. Se dice que el agua del curso del valle de Namsan fue traída hasta aquí haciendo que saliese a borbotones a través de una piedra tortuga. Pero la tortuga ya ha desaparecido. Se dice que los reyes de Silla iban al lugar acompañados de sus oficiales y nobles, y que hacían flotar sus copas de vino sobre el borbotón del agua que fluía por la canaleta de piedra y antes de que su copa flotante llegara ante sí, debía recitar un poema. Junto con Poseokjeong, el Valle de Poseok era muy querido por la gente de los días de Silla por sus limpias aguas y hermosos paisajes. Por todo ello, el palacio de la villa real durante el reino de Silla fue construido aquí. Hoy en día, los árboles de zelcova, pino y bambú preservan el aire acogedor y relajante del lugar.

Cheonggong Hanok is a mere 10 minutes away from Bulguksa Station (Donghae Line) on foot. The two traditional Hanok buildings house 10 rooms. Once you enter the main gate, the harmonious scene of a big grassy yard, a very old pine tree, a small pond, and the graceful Hanok buildings welcomes you. The garden looks a bit exotic, but there is a back story to it. The first architect of the house did business in Japan with his wife living alone in Gyeongju but regretted not having spent a long time with her; thus, he came back to Korea, built the biggest house possible, and lived with his wife for the rest of his life. Afterward, his descendants took over it, named it after the architect, Cheonggong, and opened it as a Hanok stay. That is how the space where Korea’s traditional Hanok and Japanese garden were put together by the Korean architect who did an extended stint in Japan came to be. The table used by the couple is preserved in the garden for guests to look at. Although it is a traditional Hanok, every room is equipped with a TV, a refrigerator, an air-conditioner, and a bathroom to make the space comfortable to stay even for children.
