Daereungwon is a park in central Gyeongju holding 23 grassy burial mounds of Silla kings, queens and nobles. Paths wind between the tumuli, and Cheonmachong, excavated in 1973 and named after a flying horse painted on a birch-bark saddle flap found inside, is the one tomb open to visitors. The tombs have yielded gold crowns and other National Treasures.
Cheomseongdae is a stone astronomical observatory in central Gyeongju, built during the reign of Queen Seondeok of Silla (632–647).

It is a National Treasure and part of the Gyeongju Historic Areas World Heritage Site.
Donggung Palace and Wolji Pond are the remains of a Silla palace in central Gyeongju, built under King Munmu in 674 beside an artificial pond with three small islands, long known as Anapji.
