Celebrate a Millenium of Friendship in Seoul
The Turkic Culture Festival will take place at the National Museum of Korea starting on Nov. 8th through Nov. 13th, 2016.

The arts performances that are scheduled to take place are sure to impress festival-goers but the festival has even more to offer. There will be Altaic cultural activities, folk rituals, wrestling, and more. Turkic countries and Korea share deep ties and some cultural similarities as members of the Altaic language family.
