Fodor's Expert Review Sejong Center

Located directly across from Gwanghwamun Square, the Sejong Center is the largest cultural complex in the city. Its facilities include two art museums, three theaters, and a library—each known for hosting a range of events from classical music concerts to traditional Korean dances to more mainstream theater shows. Notably, the Center’s Grand Theater is famous as the home of Asia’s largest instrument, a 1978 pipe organ with a custom-made Buddhist bell. If catching a show doesn’t sound feasible, be sure to visit at least the exhibition hall in B2 that’s devoted to the stories of King Sejong and Admiral Yi Sunshin.
