Anapji Pond (안압지) at Night

This artifical pond was build in 674AD by King Munmu. After the fall of Silla (935), the pond fell into disrepair for many centuries...it was dredged, rebuilt and excavated from 1975-1986 and now the pond and replicated building serve as copies of the original Banwolseong Palace. Almost 33,000 pieces of historic relics were excavated from the site. Cool! And prettier at night.
