The Rangnang Museum was newly built on Thongil Street in Rangnang District of Pyongyang last year.

It intensively shows the Rangnang culture which was created in Pyongyang, a cradle of the five ancient civilizations of the world, by handing down the brilliant culture rooted in Ancient Joson.

The museum exhibits various kinds of historical sites and relics from the Rangnang culture, including those of castle, buildings, wells, tombs, weaponry and arms, harness and carriages, personal ornaments and containers.

Its main building with two storeys is comprised of several sections, which display the maps of the overview of the Rangnang culture and the distribution of tombs in the Rangnang area, and a lot of ancient relics and sites in miniature.

Its outdoor section displays eight tomb models which were unearthed in the area and are of academic significance.

Visitors to the museum are attracted to the ground for folk games, comprised of an indoor dress section, where they can try on national costumes from various historical periods and take photos, and an outdoor section where they can play such folk games like swinging, ssirum (Korean wrestling), archery and yut game.

Traditional Korean dishes served at the restaurant in the museum are also very popular with visitors who relish the national flavour.

After their visit to the museum, everybody says that they feel greater pride and dignity in being members of the Korean nation.
