Jeonju Hanok Village Postcard made with recycled paper[/caption]
Jeonju Hanok Village DAY 1
Jeonju, Korea is the capital city of North Jeolla Province. Jeolla province has history dating back to pre-historic times but Jeonju came to existence as a city in 900 AD as part of Later Baekjae era. When I think of Jeonju, I think of Jeonju Bibimbap. That is probably the most famous dish that comes from Jeonju. But recently Jeonju boasts a lot more good eats than just bibimbap and has even been named as UNESCO City of Gastronomy in 2012.
The Jeonju Hanok Village postcard you see above is a recycled paper postcard that I found at a store run by young Korean photorgraphers who turn their photography into living art. Since there are actually little seeds embedded in this paper postcard that will grown when you soak in water. What a brilliant idea!! More about this in my next post..
I would have loved to stay longer but we only had about 24 hours so this is what we were able to do..
