Ancient tombs in a neighborhood called “Never Old”

Bullo-dong means “never growing old.” One of its places to visit is a group of ancient burial mounds. Knowing the name gives you something to think about as you walk between the hills.

A name to take on your walk

You do not need to memorize a long chronology to enjoy Bullo’s ancient tombs. Start with the contrast: old graves in a neighborhood whose name refuses old age. It is a small detail worth sharing with the person walking beside you.

The tale of a retreating king

A place-name legend connects the area with Wang Geon, founder of Goryeo, retreating from the Battle of Gongsan. Treat it as a legend. The neighborhood and its burial mounds are the places you can visit today.

Look for the name on a label

Bullo Makgeolli carries the same name. Published descriptions mention light grain flavor and carbonation. “Never old” is not a health claim; the pleasure is recognizing a place you have just walked through on a local bottle.

Finish with something to eat

Consider napjak-mandu, Daegu’s flat dumplings, or Dongin-dong jjim-galbi, seasoned braised ribs. Miseongdang is a dining lead for the dumplings. Check transport and opening hours separately: these are not all stops beside the tombs.
