약령시 and more photos

I have spent the last two days walking around downtown Daegu before class. My goal was to see the Yangyeongsi Market. It was the medical hub of all of Korea since 1650. I finally found it today after being lead astray by a couple faulty maps and a country whose signs have terrible English translations. Today the street and the museum were empty, but the area smelled wonderful as you can imagine. Here are a couple pictures of Korea so far.

Yep, I got sick as a dog the next couple days

Nice sunset on the way down to the Arboretum


I was not looking for this palace, but it was a nice accidental destination
