The tumuli in Daeseong-dong, located to the east of the Royal Tomb of Kim Suro, reflect the formation and development of the Gaya Era. The Daeseong-dong Tumuli are located in the center of the shell mounds of Hoehyeon-ri, the location of the founding of the Gaya Kingdom according to local legend.

The tumuli relics were excavated by researchers from the Kyungsung University Museum from 1990 to 1992 and were found to be the common burial ground of the dominant class of the Gaya Kingdom. On the hilltops, which were viewed as prime burial places, are the tombs of kings and rulers; on the slopes are the tombs of the lower classes.

A total of 136 tumuli were found in the Daesong-dong area. Further investigation of the tumuli revealed several important and interesting facts. First, from the end of the third century, men and horses were buried alive along with the dead. Also, weapons were bent and buried as well, with many of these artifacts being unearthed among the tumuli. Other materials found in the tumuli such as cylindrical bronze items, pinwheel-shaped bronze items, and jasper items showed that Gaya was involved in trade with Japan. The Daeseong-dong Tumuli is significant in that it gives a glimpse into the political and social structure of the Gaya Kingdom, and the cultural exchange between Korea, China, and Japan.

Tomb of Queen Consort of King Suro in Gusan-dong, Gimhae is the final resting place of Queen Heo, the Queen Consort of King Suro, the founder of Garak. The tomb dates all the way back to the Gaya dynasty and has been officially designated as Historic Site No. 74. Unlike many other ancient tomb mounds that are raised on flat land, Queen Heo's mound sits high upon a hill. In front of the tomb is Pasa Stone Pagoda, which its stones are known to have come from India.

Together with the Tomb of King Suro, the tomb preservation area was expanded in the 28th year of King Sejong’s reign (1446). Records indicate that the tombs were robbed over a century later during the Imjin War (1592-1598). The current headstone and plaque by the tomb was installed in the Joseon dynasty in the 25th year of King Injo's reign (1641).

Located in Gijang-gun, Busan, Jukseong Church is a drama set built for the SBS drama "Dream (2009)." The drama aired a long time ago and is forgotten, but this well-made space has become a must-see for travelers visiting Gijang. The inside of the cathedral is operated as a gallery, and visitors can encounter a pleasant surprise when there is an ongoing exhibition. Perhaps thanks to its location in a small fishing village, it retains a unique atmosphere. The seaside landscape is like a painting from the Middle Ages. The white foam breaking over the rocks contrasts with the red roof of the church and catches the attention of those who visit this place at a glance. The place where most people wait in line at Jukseong Church is a photo spot decorated with a picture frame structure. The blue sea and sky in the frame create a beautiful background.
