Why go

Jinju Silk Museum is a public institutional museum in Jinju, Gyeongsangnam-do, dedicated to silk — particularly Jinju silk, which is one of Korea's historically significant silk-producing regions. The museum walks visitors through the silk-making process from silkworm cultivation through weaving, dyeing, and finished textile, with hands-on exhibits on each step including live silkworm displays during silk-cultivation seasons. Permanent halls cover Jinju's historic role in Korean silk production, traditional Korean dress that used Jinju silk, and the modern silk industry. Best for travelers interested in textile history and Korean traditional craft.
