History and attractions
The Baekje Cultural Land project commenced in 1994 and the groundbreaking ceremony was done in 1998. The Baekje Historical Museum opened first, in 2006, and then in 2010 the theme park opened to visitors.
During the works, historically important buildings were rebuilt as replicas of the original, including Neungsa (능사), one of the most important Buddhist temples of the period, and Sabi Palace. The theme park features a "living village", consisting of noblemen's, middle class and lower class model houses, with a replica of general Gyebaek's home. A replica of how the first Baekje capital, Wiryeseong could have looked like, was also included in the theme park. Besides featuring palaces, houses and other functional buildings, the establishment showcases noblemen's tombs of the Sabi period, which were moved from their original locations in Buyeo County to the park territory.
The park holds a permanent performance, "The Birth of Chiljido" twice every day.
