Gyo-dong is a ''dong'' or neighborhood in the city of Gyeongju, North Gyeongsang province, South Korea. It is one of ''legal dong'' under its ''administrative dong'', Wolseong-dong's jurisdiction. The name, Gyo-dong originates from the fact that the area has had a ''hyanggyo'', government-managed Confucian academies during the Goryeo and Joseon dynasties. It belonged to Bunae-myeon, Gyeongju County (Gyeongju-gun) during the late period of the Joseon Dynasty. Gyo-dong was variously called Hyanggyotgol, Gyochon or Gyori at the times.〔(교동 Gyo-dong 校洞 ) (in Korean) Doosan Encyclopedia〕 Dorurang Mountain (''Dorurangsan'') with a height of 95 meter lies across Gyo-dong, and nearby neighborhoods, Inwang-dong, and Tap-dong.〔 Cultural properties in Gyo-dong include not only tangible heritages such as Gyeongju Hyanggyo (Gyeognju Confucian Academy), Choe Sik's house, Gyeongju Samuso (Gyeongju's local council for government officers),〔http://eguide.gj.go.kr/detail_view/Detail_view.jsp?cid=8288&tab=1〕 Cheongwan temple site (''Cheongwansaji''), but also ''Gyeongju Gyo-dong beopju'' (a rice wine) to have been designated as Important Intangible Cultural Property.〔 ==See also== *Yangdong Village of Gyeongju *Hahoe Folk Village 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gyo-dong, Gyeongju」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
