The most of the relics in Goryeo dynasty displayed in the exhibition was relating to Buddhism.
Buddhism was the core of people’s life in Goryeo Dynasty.
When Goryeo kingdom was attacked by Mongolian Army, Goryeo had tried to protect their kingdom with the help of Buddha.
So they had made 80,000 buddhist scriptures to protect from Mongolian attack
It seemed that they believed the Buddhist Scriptures had mysterious power.
In the corner of the exhibition, Golden Buddhist Scriptures were displayed.
The Scriptures were small though, the drawings were very delicate.
It is sorry other photos were out focused.
@slowwalker,
I don't know what to say, coz this amazed me! Impressive and I can't even think about the value of these golden sculptures! Most important thing is they are used to write Lord Buddhas' teachings! Thank you very much for sharing such great experience with us! Otherwise, we might not hear these are exist either!
Cheers~

The photos you shared are lovely, @slowwalker.
They remind me of a Bible verse from Proverbs 25:11 - A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in settings of silver.
Only short-sighted people under estimate the power of words - even to win wars!
When Britain was under siege by the Nazi's in WW II, Winston Churchill rallied the people by his oratory. He enabled Britons to resist the Nazi onslaught and emerge triumphant.
As one writer said, the English language went to war.
Have a good day, my friend :)
