Gyeongju: the ancient capital of Shilla Empire, nowadays a quiet medium-sized city settled in the middle of the gentle Korean countryside. The area around Gyeongju is spreaded with world ranking shrines, like the Unesco`s world heritage temple of Bulguksa and Seokguram Grotto, as for Yangdong ancient folk village. A totally different charme to big cities, simply lovely. I`ve travelled this sights with the company of a Penelope Cruz-like French lady met at the hostel, mixing cultural trips to heavy party sessions and, finally 5 years later, back to hitchike! Yeah!
