Information:
Gyeongju Donggung Palace and Wolji Pond were the secondary palace site which was used for the palace of the Crown Prince along with other subsidiary buildings and it also was the banquet room for important national event and important visitors.
After the fall of Silla, followed by Goryeo and Joseon, the site was named ‘Anapji’ instead.
Later, a fragment from a pottery which the carved letter “Wolji” was found in 1980s and it revealed that Wolji contained the meaning of the pond reflecting moon.
Thus, the name ‘Anapji’ was changed to the current - ‘Donggung Palace and Wolji Pond.’
