There was an one of the oldest artificial pond in Gyeongju. The size of pond was huge, so it would be better to call it lake.
This pond was made after the unification of Korean peninsular 674 AD.
This pond was said to be a part of the palace of Shilla dynasty.
It was located in front of the main palace of Shilla dynasty.
It is recorded that the crown prince had resided there.
It was made very scientifically.
The entrance of water to the pond was made thoughtfully.
It was designed to filter the impurities from water.
And there was an island to control the speed of water.
The wall was made in eastern area, but there was no wall in western part.
This design was intended the pond looked wider.
It was surprising how they had built such a large artificial pond more than 1400 years ago.
Almost of original building was ruined after the collapse of Shilla dynasty.
Current buildings were reconstructed in these days.
While walking along the road around the pond, I enjoyed the beauty of the pond.
Plus you can play with beautiful silk carps.
I strongly recommend to visit this pond ‘ANAPJI’
I would like to visit one day, look like a paradise

Nice to see that there are Koi fishes there.
I have a 15-20 thousand liters pond in my garden with 14 Koi.
And now at this time of year they are starting to wake up and wait form warmer weather, like me.

Yeah, its quite large !!! Really looks like a lake and not a pond.
But you didn't inform the exact location of ANAPJI ? I mean where is Gyeongju?
Sorry I am not that good when it comes to general knowledge :P I am only good with philosophical and psychological stuff that I write about :P That's it !! Hehe

This pond or lake whatever you call it is really amazing.It's really hard to believe that it's almost 1400 year's old.A t that period they were very rich at their architecture.Shilla dynasty was very rich it shows.The lake is such a nice place to visit. At that time they thought about filtering water that is brilliant.Thank's for this post.

wow, you always amaze me with the natural atmosphere in which you live this life.
the Shilla dynasty 1400 years ago already had the advanced conformation in accordance with its time, it is seen from the way they built this pool, as you say, The entrance of water to the pond was made thoughtfully. It was designed to filter the impurities from water. And there was an island to control the speed of water
so in my opinion we should not be surprised by the ability of generations in the past, they have managed to create some of the wonders of the world, such as the ancient Egyptian pyramids, Borobudur temple of Indonesia etc, maybe in the future this column will also be one of the wonders that exist in the world
sorry if there is a wrong word of mine, and many thanks for your support on my work

columns in the shilla dynasty period, I saw the trees there were dried up there and whether nobody preserved them.
