On these hallowed grounds, heroes from Korea's past would be laid to rest and honored for all time. The cemetery rests on over 16 million square feet, making it quite huge for a country tight on space. -- Information -- Address: Seoul-si Dongjak-gu Dongjak-dong San (Mt.) 44-7 (Hyeonchung-ro 65 Beon) Phone: Tourism Information Line: +82-2-1330 (Korean, English, Japanese, Chinese), +82-2-815-0625, +82-2-815-3625 (Korean Only) Web: www.snmb.mil.kr (Korean/English) Hours: 06:00-18:00 Admission: Free Parking Fees: Free Directions: Subway Line 9 (exit 8) or buses 5524, 6411, 361, 362, 363, 642, 640 or 360. -= WEB SITES =- Twitter: http://twitter.com/qiranger Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/qiranger Blog: http://qiranger.com The Travel Channel: http://youtube.com/qiranger The Vlog Channel: http://youtube.com/theqirangervlog Podcast: http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/the-qiranger-adventures/id451881376
