Voices to refrain from visiting hometowns or tombs are increasing during the Chuseok of this year due to the re-proliferation of Corona 19. I decided to limit it.

Incheon Facilities Corporation has decided to temporarily close all facilities of Incheon Family Park except crematorium from the 30th of the coming Chuseok holiday to the 4th of the following month.

This is because it is difficult to keep social distancing when visitors from all over the country visit the park, and Corona 19 can spread in the process of drinking behind the grave.

Instead, we decided to set a'priority period' to induce the dispersion of the tombs, and to implement an online tomb service.

During the Chuseok holiday period, the Daejeon Memorial Park limits indoor Bongandang memorials to 400 families and 2,000 people per day, and only those who made a reservation in advance can enter the indoor Bongandang.

Guri-si, Gyeonggi Province, is also planning to close the cemetery during the Chuseok holiday to control access, and minimize the number of graves by distributing it before and after the Chuseok holiday.

For this reason, the online grave service is attracting attention, and from noon on the 21st, it can be done through the e-Haneul Business Information System of the Ministry of Health and Welfare.

I think we should avoid crowding too many people at once anyway.

What about the next news?

Today (15th) The last news is that a stone Buddha statue, believed to have been made in the early Goryeo period, was found under the Insubong Peak of Bukhansan, where hikers usually visit.

In 2015, a large rock came into the eyes of an employee of the Bukhansan National Park Service, who was visiting the campsite near Insubong Peak of Bukhansan Mountain.

Although moss was stuck, it was because the pattern was patterned regularly as if someone had elaborately carved it. The cultural property experts who visited the site after receiving the tip gathered opinions that it looked like a statue of a stone Buddha.

On the 12th, when the detailed excavation began, when the rock was turned over, the body of the Buddha was revealed, and the head of the Buddha, which had been buried in the ground, was found right next to it.

Although this stone Buddha statue has a broken neck, the shape of the face and body is relatively intact, with a short nose, thick lips, soft facial expressions, and even wrinkles on clothes.

Experts say that it is believed to be a Buddha statue in the early Goryeo period, based on the overall production techniques such as nose shape, hand position, and dress, and that it is considered to be very important data for the study of Buddhist sculpture in the early Goryeo period.
