May 18th National Cemetery Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
5.18 Korea Democracy Movement Memorial Tower. The height of the square column tower is 40 meters, which makes the traditional Korean stone-carved water pole pillars have a modern sense and is in line with the visualization. The oval shape in the center of the owner's hand in the tower body symbolizes the resurrection of new life, and the reflected light of the ever-changing sunlight is the seed of hope.

At the time of the 518 incident, this was a barracks for the suppression of troops and a concentration camp for the freedom fighters. It is worth a visit, a museum or something. . .
I saw the event presentation, so I went there to visit.
Our English-language guide made our trip very enjoyable and we left a thorough understanding. There was a short video presentation, the museum and gift shop were cemeteries and monuments on the same site. Koreans strongly believe it will happen again if you don’t remember.
There are Democracy Square and Memorial Square, followed by facilities to commemorate the victims of the May 18 Movement, and their burial groups.
The preservation is complete, the infrastructure is well built, and the administrators are very conscientious.
