WHY VISIT

Another story of records at the Seoul Metropolitan Archives The Seoul Metropolitan Archives presents the exhibition A City’s Boarding Log, introducing the journey of Seoul’s transportation. The exhibition traces the city’s growth from the aftermath of the Korean War to the 1980s, as it built the foundations of its transportation system through archival materials.

In addition, a new permanent space has been created by relocating and reconstructing the exhibition contents of the Seoul Archives and Culture Center on the third floor of the Seoul Metropolitan Library, allowing visitors to explore Seoul from multiple perspectives.
