Here is the sacred place where Hwarang, the young warriors of Silla Dynasty, trained both bodies and spirits, and in every valley of Nam-san Mountain around here, Buddhas Pagodas and other historical sites are preserved like a dream as the evidence of once brilliant culture of Seorabeol(now Gyeongju).
Silla combined the two other kingdoms, Baegie and Goguryeo, in 660 and in 668 respectively to present the first unified dynasty in Korean history. And the brilliant culture of the three kingdoms were also unified and a gate to the golden age of the Unified Silla Culture was opened.
Tong-il-jeon Palace was built in 1977 with the instruction of President Park Chung Hee to commemorate the great task of the unification by King Muyeol, King Munmu and Gen. Kim Yu-sin, and to symbolize the old spirit of young warriors of Hwarang as an inherent mental support to the epoch-making development of present-day Korea.
A stone monument commemorating the unification of the three dynasties and three stone monuments of King Muyeol, King Munmu and Gen. Kim Yu-Sin stand in the premises.
