Gates of the Villa in Baek Wun Dong Garden

in travel •  6 years ago 

What attracted my attention was the gates of the villa in the garden.
There were 3 kinds of gates there.

The first one made me impressive was the small gate connected with the stream.
I don’t think this gate is meaningful in using.
It would have the symbolic meaning to connect houses with Nature, in my view.

Main gate was in the shape of typical style of traditional noble family’s house.
Interesting thing was this gate was stood to the stream and the trees, not to the road.

Third one was the ordinary gate. In my view, this gate was the only one for real usage.

Actually there was an another kind of gate, which was a gate without gate.
I introduced this space between the wall.

The wall in this garden was made to distinguish the villa from Nature not to protect the villa against the threats from outside.

@slowwalker,
Is this villa located at a forest area? Why it looks so drier than the outside? Sometimes they purposely brought that dry look! Anyway these gates are mostly connected with the nature! So, sometimes it might have a meaning as well! Wonderful photography and you might get amazing and relax time there too!

Cheers~

Round area jungle seems natrul.attracting villa but dry area.Roses,water fountains,street lightsabbat,watering areas should be availed

Love the nice design, its looking simple but really react in the mind because something is special its behind. Love the photography of Baek Wun Dong Garden.

It's like there is always an extra intentions for these doors really, the door to the stream or the well is really cool I think I also like the space in the wall that's basically another door, I think this sends a message of privacy to the Baek Wun Dong Garden and it's simplicity, amazing shots too.

Looks amazing

@slowwalker, I'm most inspiring with those three Gates of the Villa in Baek Wun Dong Garden. Roof styles attracted to my vision. Main gate has typical look. But built up better. Boundary wall pattern gorgeous but seemed more protected and stronger. Garden trees not impressive without leaves. But some part of season would be awesome. Brilliant capture selection.

Beautiful post, beautiful photos. We can feel the place is very comfortable with all elements of life. And you picture with explanation make us know it better. i just comment with this words. i hope you accept it

the gate is an introduction to another place.
he stood guard and came and went
become a watchdog for anyone who will do evil
be a witness for anyone who will do good

even though small gates must have meaning
make us feel right in front of the destination
make sure we have arrived at the destination

the gate drove us into another world
enter another wider atmosphere
with the gate we can see a different world
free from the confinement that holds the soul,

unite different realms
even different dimensions
become a harmony in disharmony
find a new symphony

Thank you @slowwalker to share this beautiful post

I think the old wood doors are very ornate. A very peaceful area!

cool, if in my place it will be crowded with visitors hehe

최근 K-DRAMA(사극)를 통해 한국 전통 가옥에 대해 감탄하곤 합니다. 어느 장면이든 열려있는 대문을 통해 또 하나의 풍경을 볼 수 있더군요. 대문을 여는 순간 또다른 집 안팎 경치를 감상하는 호사(?)를 누릴 수 있는게 한옥인 것 같습니다.
