About
The Sejong Traditional Paste Museum highlights Korea’s traditional sauce culture, featuring staples like soybean paste, red chili paste, and soy sauce. Its garden, with over 1,000 pots, is a standout attraction. The museum includes indoor exhibition halls, an outdoor exhibit area, a fermentation experience center, a Korean restaurant specializing in fermented sauces, and a paste shop. Visitors can participate in activities such as making grain soap shaped like meju (fermented soybean blocks) or creating their own fermented pastes. In November, visitors can also observe the process of making soybean paste and red chili paste.
