To the north are China and Russia, and to the east lies Japan.<br> The size of the country is very small, the whole country is even smaller than Texas state.</p> <p>Korea has 5000 years of history. The famous Korean food 'Kimchee' has 3000 years of history.<br> The name of the country was "kochosun" 5000 years ago, it means Ancient Chosun. The Korean people have been united as a single nation since the time of Ancient Chosun, living in Manchuria and on the Korean peninsula, it is now divided into south and north since the Korea War in 1950, and its reunification remains a task to be resolved. </p> <p>The Korean peninsula has had 8 provinces since the Chosun Dynasty.<br /> The capital of the Republic of Korea, Seoul, is located in Kyonggi Province. It has been the hub of the Korean peninsula for 600 years since the Chosun Kingdom period. This is why it is the most highly populated province, although the smallest in terms of area.<br /> I've never gone to Chejoo Island, but I want to recommand you to visit there if you have a chance to go to Korea. It is an international tourist attraction well-known for its unique and spectacular scenery especially around Mountain Halla. The island is located in Chejoo province and the province has the distinct culture of an island.</p> <p>There are some information about Kimchee food, traditional art, Korean martial art, traditional costume, and family restaurants on other pages.</p></font><br /><br /> </div> <div style="position:absolute;top:0.2in;"> <img src="yjk_logo.gif" alt="logo" border="1" /> <br /><br /> <p><a href="yjk_table.htm">Korean Food</a></p> <p><a href="yjk_art.htm">Korean Art</a></p> <p><a href="yjk_tkd.htm">Martial Arts</a></p> <p><a href="yjk_costum.htm">Traditional Costume</a></p> <p><a href="yjk_rest.htm">Family Restaurant</a></p> <p><a href="yjk_sitemap.htm">Site Map</a></p> <p><a href="yjk_design.htm">Design Document</a></p> <p><a href="yjk_links.htm">Links</a></p> <p><a href="yjk_form.htm">User Form</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.tccd.net">TCC Destrict</a></p> <p><a href="http://dl.tccd.net">ITSE2413</a></p> </div> <div style="position:absolute;left:1.2in;right:1.in;top:5.7in;"> <hr></hr><font-family:'arial;><font color=purple size="-1"> <center><p>CopyrightÒ$2003 by Kim</p> <p>Last modified: May 1, 2003</p> <a href="mailto:kahala99@hotmail.com"><u>kahala99@hotmail.com</u><img src="yjk_email.gif" alt="email" border="0" /></a></center><br /> </div> </font> </body> </html>
