I don't know what the admission charge is for the special Inca exhibit, but it is FREE to enter the Nat'l Museum and tour the regular exhibits (you have to stop at the ticket booth for a ticket, but it's free). It is a fantastic, gorgeous museum. The building itself is stunning, and the collections are really great. There's also a hands-on children's museum (not sure if that part is free). The museum is in a beautiful setting in Yongsan Family Park. There's a large museum shop where you can buy Korea-related gifts, as well as a restaurant, snack shops, and convenience store. It's just steps away from Ichon Station (exit 2) and between the park and the museum you can keep yourself occupied all day. You can also go through the subway across to exit 5, to Dongbu Ichon dong, lots of Japanese restaurants, and to Hangang Park along the river and rent a bike when the weather is good.
I've been going there lately, just wanted to give it a rave review. |

Yes. Everything is finishing around the same time. There are new exhibits coming in early May- Rodin at the Seoul Museum of Art, and Ancient Greece at the National Museum. |
