Must-see attractions
Our Lady of Lourdes Cathedral
Daegu
　　An icon and motif of Daegu, this lovely cruciform church is quite a sight, with its twin spires. Originally constructed in wood, the first incarnation went up in flames in 1899. A brick-and-stone replacement was quickly completed by 1902. Check out the interior, with its still extant luminous stained glass,...
Bullo-dong Tumuli-gongwon

Within the church is a fascinating history of the building and a collection of Bibles and Christian material in Korean, as well as numerous historic photographs. Look out for the fascinating examples of Korean Christmas cards from the early...
Daegu National Museum
Daegu
　　This excellent museum has English labelling throughout most of its collection – and what a collection. Armour, jewellery, Buddhist relics from various different eras, Confucian manuscripts, clothing and textiles are all beautifully displayed in well-lit glass cases, and there’s normally at least a couple of temporary exhibits as well. From...
Daegu Hyanggyo Confucian School
Daegu
　　This tranquil Confucian School at the heart of Daegu is an oasis of introspective calm which dates to 1398 (though it was burned down by the Japanese and rebuilt in the late 16th century). The main hall containing the portrait of Confucius is not generally open to visitors, but you...
