It housed countless royal books and documents that are now considered priceless Korean historical records. The Kyujanggak Institute for Korean Studies of Seoul National University ― where the library is now located ― has published two books on Kyujanggak in English. “Kyujanggak: Rediscovering its History and Culture,” one of the two volumes, offers a historical overview of the development of the royal library

Seine Reiseroute verläuft zunächst durch eine faszinierende Steppenlandschaft und entlang des gewaltigen Tien-Shan-Gebirges. Besonderen Nervenkitzel bereiten ein Abstecher nach Taraz, einem ehemaligen Handelszentrum der Seidenstraße, und der Flug mit einer Propellermaschine in den Norden des Landes, wo die Retortenstadt Astana mit einer Vielzahl von architektonischen Wunderwerken verblüfft.
