Herbs Here,
Herbs There,
Herbs Frickin' Everywhere!!!
Korean Oriental Herbal Medicine uses 2 main ingredients, they are believed to be the best at regulating the energy in the body. These powerful ingredients, ginseng and deer antlers, are somewhat expensive but are still readily available in Daegu Yangnyeongsi. Korean ginseng is quite possibly the highest quality in the world due to the perfect soil and climate of Korea for growing ginseng. Ginseng stores can be found within a 30 minute walk almost anywhere in Korea. On the other hand, Korea has almost hunted its deer population into extinction, so all of the deer antlers are imported by nearby Russia.
At the festival deer antlers and display jars of ginseng lined the streets and store windows. The streets were also packed with other exotic and mysterious plants and creatures used in the practice. Some of the things that caught our attention were the mushrooms, deep fried ginseng (it was delicious dipped in honey), scorpions, and giant centipedes!
