Plan your visit
Check ticketed areas, seasonal access and museum closures separately. Festival lantern displays are not permanent everyday features. Check transport from your actual station or terminal to the entrance and allow for level changes near the river.
- Admission & costs
- Listed standard individual fees: adult KRW 2,000, youth KRW 1,000, child KRW 600. Confirm resident/age concessions with official notices. Museum and special-event conditions are separate.
- Transport & arrival
- Navigate to a Jinjuseong entrance at 626 Namgang-ro. Jinju Station, the express terminal and intercity terminal are different arrival points; check the final bus or taxi connection.
- Parking & access
- Use fortress parking. Jinju National Museum inside the grounds directs visitors to the fortress lot rather than a separate museum car park. Confirm fees and event restrictions on site.
Nearby route & food
