Heads-up

A fairly long slope leads to the elevator. The slope's steepness has not been measured.

The accessible toilet has a fairly heavy manual door. Plan for someone to hold it if you can.

Getting in

Entrance
The main entrance is wide, with no step or slope, so it is easy to enter by wheelchair. One visitor wrote in 2024 that it is on Insadong-gil (인사동길), opposite Ssamzigil (쌈지길).
Route
The official route starts at Anguk Station Exit 6.
Parking
Accessible parking that suits wheelchair users is available. Sources differ on whether the building has accessible parking. Call +82-2-6954-2910 to ask before you drive.
