Ganghwa Hwamunseok Munhwagwan

"It is said that Ganghwa Hwamunseok (rush mats) has been developed into a handicraft industry during the Goryeo Dynasty. During the Goryeo Dynasty, Ganghwa served as the capital of Goryeo for 39 years. Wanggol mat, which was the best product among the mats at the time, was produced for the royal family and bureaucrats who moved to Ganghwa, and this historical event became the biggest background for Ganghwa Hwamunseok to have been handed down to this day.
