Why go
Jinsan Hyanggyo is a Korean Confucian academy (hyanggyo) — a state-supported public Confucian school during the Joseon period. The hyanggyo preserves traditional architecture (lecture halls, ancestral shrine, dormitories) and is registered as a Cultural Heritage. As with other Korean hyanggyo, Jinsan provides a window into the Joseon-era public-education and Confucian-state system. For travelers seriously interested in Korean Confucian heritage beyond the famous seowons, Jinsan Hyanggyo is one of the cleaner specialty single picks.
