    4. Traveler tips

    • Check the exhibition calendar before travelling; the outdoor building photograph cannot identify which galleries are installed or closed.
    • Families should reserve the Children's Museum separately and keep the reservation confirmation available at check-in.
    • Request English or Japanese interpretation at least two weeks ahead rather than expecting a guide at the information desk.
    • Search “국립대구박물관” 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 catalogue coordinate is an approximate centre pin, not turn-by-turn entrance guidance.
