My Cultural Heritage Tour 8
Description
Book Introduction
Just 2 hours from Seoul, the charm of the Namhan River in autumn!
From Yeongwol to Danyang, Jecheon, Chungju, and Yeoju
Follow Yoo Hong-jun's path


With cumulative sales of 3.7 million copies, Yoo Hong-jun's "My Cultural Heritage Tour," the first true million-seller in Korean humanities and the driving force behind the cultural heritage tour boom that turned the entire country into a museum, is back.
After a brief shift to Japan (4 volumes in total) following the Jeju chapter in Volume 7, the story returns to Korea after 3 years and continues its unfinished journey with Volume 8, Namhangang Chapter.
The new book, 'Namhan River', unfolds along the Namhan River, the lifeblood of our country.
Professor Yoo Hong-jun's latest travelogue, which begins in Yeongwol and continues through Danyang, Jecheon, Chungju, Wonju, and Yeoju toward the Han River, once again amazes us with the beautiful scenery scattered throughout the Namhan River basin, the peaceful scenery of riverside villages, and the rich stories surrounding the cultural heritage of each region.
The deep history, beautiful scenery, and heartbreaking stories of human life will touch you with a more profound emotion than anywhere else.

As Professor Yoo Hong-jun emphasizes, the Namhan River basin is a place where you can enjoy beautiful mountains, rivers, and lakes all at once, and feel deep in your bones that our country is a land of great beauty.
Moreover, it is located in the central part of the country, and can be reached within two hours from anywhere in the country, making it an easy and convenient place to visit.
In particular, the Namhangang section includes a richer itinerary than ever before, making "My Cultural Heritage Tour" an excellent guide for fall, the perfect season for field trips and travel.

Publisher's Review
Recommendation

Writings written in a special way are called literature.
The human mental activity of appreciating things from a special perspective is called culture.
Yoo Hong-jun's "My Cultural Heritage Tour" is a blessing to Koreans.
It is a statement of the collective heritage of the Korean people, encompassing art, calligraphy, literature, and history.
Thanks to the faithful footsteps of the O Baek-ri, 'Namhan River, like a mother' and his companions, the reader enjoys the privilege of a leisurely stroll.

―An Kyung-hwan (Professor Emeritus, Seoul National University)

Thanks to the presence of a guide with keen eyes and deep vision, every nook and cranny of the three thousand ri land has become a treasure trove of cultural heritage.
The saying, 'If you know, you can see' seems to mean that if you know yesterday, you can decide on today and see tomorrow.
Reading Yoo Hong-jun's travelogue reveals not only cultural heritage but also history and the path of humanity.
How should I live to live well? I ask myself this question.
―Lee Cheol-su (painter)
