On Children's Day (May 5th, Monday), Gungneung and historical institutions will be open normally.

The Cultural Heritage Administration (Director Na Sun-hwa) opened the four major palaces (Gyeongbokgung Palace, Changdeokgung Palace, Changgyeonggung Palace, Deoksugung Palace), Jongmyo Shrine, Joseon Royal Tomb, Hyeonchungsa Temple (Asan, Chungcheongnam-do), and Sejong the Great Tomb (Geumsan, Gyeonggi Yeoju) to the public. Depending on the ruins, the above major historical sites were regularly closed every Monday or Tuesday to repair facilities and maintain viewing environments, but during this holiday period, Children's Day (5th/Monday) and Buddha's Birthday (6th/Tue) were included, so it was decided to be fully opened without holidays. This is a measure to expand opportunities for the people to enjoy cultural heritage in the era of cultural prosperity, and is to open major historical sites such as royal palaces and royal tombs in May. In particular, on Children's Day, two families with children under the sixth grade of elementary school (12 years old) were allowed to watch for free.
