The Beauty of Tradition

The Onggi Exhibition Hall at the Bucheon City Museum beautifully showcases the traditional aesthetics created by clay and fire. The exhibition features a variety of Onggi jars categorized by size and purpose, and they are arranged in realistic settings, such as traditional jar stands, making the visit more engaging. Visitors can enjoy learning about the specific uses of different jars, such as water jars, sauce jars, and liquor jars. Although the viewing path is modest in size, it is neatly organized, making it a pleasant experience to walk through with children. The traditional curves and weight of the Onggi jars exude a warm and nostalgic atmosphere, even just by looking at them. Through the artifacts that bear the touch of the potters who crafted them, visitors can feel closer to the lives of the past. It is a humble yet profound space.
