Yi Dynasty

1400















My crew and I are on our way to see the Yi Dynasty. We are traveling by boat over to the island and we are not to far away. Once we get onto land, we are going to travel to Hanyang which is the capital. It is not to far from where the boat is going so we will have a pretty easy travel by foot. 




We are now off the boat and on our way to the capital. We are all hoping to see the cool buildings, art, culture that make this dynasty great. We aren't exactly sure what we should expect but either way we are excited. It should be a very interesting place.





The capital is a very impressive place. It is everything that we have ever heard about. The architecture, people and art are all so amazing. We had been looking around for a while and then we saw Yi Song- gye. Yi Song-gye originally founded this dynasty years ago and we heard he would be there and he was. That was very cool to see. We are now on our way back to the boat excited to go on to our next adventure.
