This museum reminds us of the tremendous sacrifice UN forces made in freeing South Korea during the Korean War. The changing of the guard is definitely worth seeing if the weather is good. The cemetery is so well kept. It is manicured and demonstrates the huge value the South Koreans still place on the ultimate sacrifice that so many UN soldiers made.

Very peaceful and well maintained memorial place. The staff at the memorial hall where the introduction video is displayed could say thank you in Turkish. They played the video in Turkish for us as well. We spent between 1-2 hours here. I’d recommend visiting this place especially if you’re from one of the 17 countries who joined the Korean war.

A must visit when you’re in the region of Busan.

This is a must-see location if you have any interest in the Korean War or South Korean history in general. The park itself is very well maintained and lots of information about the conflict can be found there. It was very sombre to see all the international graves and memorials, but a good experience.
