DAILY PHOTO: Cheomseongdae Observatory, Gyeongju

Posted on July 22, 2025 by B Gourley

It may not look like much, but at over 1300 years old, it’s the oldest surviving astronomical observatory in Asia (that anyone knows about.)

Busan Limerick

Posted on July 15, 2025 by B Gourley

There was a young man from Busan --
 'Twas up the hillside he lived on
   That - pressed for time -
   He bought a zipline,
 But got stuck, dangling above Busan.
