Guhuangdong Weonji Historic Site in Gyeongju - The Guhuangdong Weonji Historic Site is a garden site from the United Silla period located near the eastern side of the Hwangnyongsa Temple site in Gyeongju. The weonji (garden pond) was created in a single construction period and consists of a rectangular stone structure oriented east-west, a water inlet on the north and a water outlet on the south. Additionally, unique stone ornaments of various sizes have been identified, suggesting it was a royal garden of United Silla. In particular, this is the only confirmed case of a United Silla royal garden discovered in Korea.
