    4. Traveler tips

    • Arrive before 17:30 even when the building closes at 18:00.
    • Use the museum as the weather-safe part of a Jikjisa district route.
    • Check the final local return before entering the last gallery.
    • Search “김천시립박물관 경상북도 김천시 대항면 직지사길 130” in Naver Map or Kakao Map and confirm the exact entrance and return route.
    • Hours, admission, closures and programme schedules can change; use the official source before departure.
    • The audited coordinate identifies the named destination, but the final gate, parking area and step-free entrance still need a live route check.
