UN Cemetery

Rev Myung Hwa Pak, Moderator in the NSW/ACT Synod (Uniting Church in Australia) coordinated a visit to the UN Cemetery in Busan. Myung was born in Busan so knows it well. The small group caught the Metro from BEXCO and visited a  church along the way with floor to ceiling windows.

We travelled by car to the UN cemetery where we had a light lunch and then spent time in the Australian section of the cemetery (there are flags representing 20 countries). It was very moving to be standing in that place where so many young men from so many nations have their final resting places.

Myung also took us to the Cultural Museum close by. Very informative about Korean history and culture.
