2026 Haman National Heritage Night Schedule, Nakhwa-nori, Shuttle & Parking, Before Visiting Mujinjeong with Kids
A fall night when the national heritage lights up
is coming 🏮
2026 Haman National Heritage Night
will be held for three days from October 9 (Fri) to 11 (Sun),
every day from 18:00 to 22:00
at Mujinjeong, Daesan-ri Stone Seated Triad Buddha, and Seongsan Mountain Fortress.
This year’s theme is ‘Mugungmujin (Infinite)!’
Admission is free.
I have summarized the official website announcements
and Haman-gun press release (September 21).
🎪 What Kind of Event Is It?
This event showcases the beauty of national heritage
that you might miss during the day,
through night lights, stories, performances, and experiences.
It covers five heritage sites:
Mujinjeong, Seongsan Mountain Fortress,
Daesan-ri Stone Seated Triad Buddha,
Haman Nakhwa-nori, and Haman Hwacheon Nongak.
The programs are divided into eight night themes:
Night View, Night Road, Night Story, Night Painting,
Night Performance, Night Market, Night Food, Night Stay—
Eight Nights (8-ya).
The event is hosted and organized by the Haman Hwacheon Nongak Preservation Society.
⏰ What Happens at What Time?
Here is the hourly program announced
by the organizers on October 6.
There is a single schedule without date separation.
| Time | Program |

🔥 How Can You Watch Nakhwa-nori?
According to the announcement, Nakhwa-nori
lights 400 lanterns each day from 19:00.
Each participant writes their wish on a wish paper and attaches it.
There are no seats; it’s a circulatory viewing
where each group walks around the pond to watch.
The program guide mentions 300 lanterns,
so the number varies by source.
The Haman Nakhwa-nori Preservation Society’s
Nakhwa Lantern Making Experience
is also available for on-site registration.
The lanterns you make can be used
that day or at the next Nakhwa-nori.
