Icheon World Ceramics Center

One of Korea’s oldest and most prized art forms is ceramics and at Icheon World Ceramics Center (about an hour from Seoul) you can see more than 500 different creations. It is a great place to buy ceramics at heavily discounted prices and there are even classes teaching visitors how to make their own work of art.

I came here again, after visiting 2 years ago when I had tight time constraints. I was able to see all of the attractions in good detail, and some of the exhibits had been updated too. This is an excellent display of the history of electrical/electronic technology from the discovery of electricity to the technology of today, featuring many Samsung products produced over the last 50 years. Be sure to make a reservation or email for an appointment if visiting Monday to Friday, as visits are normally restricted to appointments only. No reservation is needed on Saturdays. 15-1 bus from Suwon station is the easiest way to get there and back.
