  31. Gyeongju, home to three UNESCO World Heritage Sites, is imbued with the aura of tradition dating back to the Silla Kingdom. Gyeongju was founded in 57 BC as capital of the Kingdom of Silla, and remained its seat of power for nigh on a thousand years – the Silla dynasty got through a whopping 56 monarchs before collapsing in 935. As a result, the city has more historic sites than anywhere else in the country. Locals often refer to it as a “Museum without Walls”, on account of the regal burial mounds spread liberally not just inside the city, but throughout the fields and forests outside the centre
