Beyond the Tombs: Gyeongju’s Newest Book Cafe is a Haven for Slow Travel & Muslim-Friendly Comfort


A New Chapter in Gyeongju: Where Ancient History Meets Modern Comfort

Gyeongju is a city that invites you to wander. Its historic streets whisper tales of the Silla Dynasty, and its magnificent tombs stand as silent monuments to a golden age. But after a day of exploring Korea’s greatest stories, the modern traveler seeks a different kind of haven: a place to pause, reflect, and recharge in comfort.

This September 2025, Silla Legacy Hotel is thrilled to write a new chapter in Gyeongju hospitality. We are unveiling three brand-new facilities designed to create a complete, thoughtful, and unparalleled travel experience: a cozy Book Cafe and a serene Muslim Prayer Room.


Find Your Story at The Silla Book Cafe

Joining the vibrant Gyeongju book cafe scene, our new on-site cafe is more than just a place for coffee—it’s a destination. Designed for the modern traveler who embraces “slow travel,” this is your sanctuary to unwind.

Imagine sinking into a plush armchair, the rich aroma of freshly brewed coffee filling the air as you leaf through a curated selection of books. Whether you’re planning your next day’s adventure, journaling about the historical sites you’ve visited, or simply enjoying a quiet moment, The Silla Book Cafe is your peaceful retreat. It’s set to become one of Gyeongju’s must-visit new attractions for both guests and locals alike.


A Space for Peace: The Muslim Prayer Room

To complete our commitment to our Muslim guests, we are opening a dedicated Muslim Prayer Room. This is not just an amenity; it is a symbol of our respect and welcome.

The prayer room will be a serene, clean, and quiet space for worship and reflection. It will be fully equipped with prayer mats and marked with the Qibla direction, providing a proper and comfortable environment for you to perform your daily prayers. Its location next to our other new facilities creates an integrated zone of comfort and convenience.

Why Silla Legacy is Redefining the Gyeongju Experience

These new facilities are part of our holistic vision for hospitality. We believe a great hotel doesn’t just provide a bed; it anticipates your needs and enhances your entire journey. By combining a trendy Gyeongju book cafe with essential Muslim friendly Gyeongju amenities, we are creating a destination that is inclusive, comfortable, and truly memorable.

Be among the first to experience this new era of hospitality in Gyeongju. Our new facilities open in September 2025.
