The size of the Independence Hall of Korea and its surrounding area is about 4 million square meters (1,200,000 pyeong). The east part is called Donggok and the west part Seogok. The center area and the exhibition halls are called Junggok. The east area, which contains a "Central Park" for youngsters, is under construction and the west area is currently used as a camping site for field studies.

The Grand Hall of the Nation is a symbol of independence as well as the main memorial hall. The tile-roofed house is the largest in Asia, as big as a 126 by 68 meter long soccer field. The building's height reaches almost 45 meters (equal to a 15 story building). The roof is built on a counter lifted style called " matbaejibung", which was also used in the main building of Sudeok temple from the Goryeo Dynasty. The Grand Hall of the Nation is even bigger than the Tiananmen in Beijing.

Plaza of the Nation is located in front of the Grand Hall. It is 222m wide and 258m long, total sizes being about 39,468m2 (11,657 pyeong). Thousands of people gather here to participate in big events, like open music festivals and memorial services. The center of the Korean Plaza is paved with granite flagstones and the outer part of the Plaza is finished with verdurous lawn and stone slabs engraved with yang/ying patterns.

The Independence Hall has seven exhibition halls, with the total floor area of 23,624 square meters (7,146 pyeong). It is the biggest exhibition facility in Korea. A Concrete steel foundation and plane slabs were used to build the exhibition halls. This 12.5-m high exhibition hall is divided into small and large exhibition rooms as well as a special exhibition room.

Materials and resources for exhibits and research are stored, preserved, and classified into two archives (size: 2,174 m2). The latest equipment carefully controls the temperature and humidity where archives are stored in order to preserve the materials and resources in perfect condition.

The Circle Vision Theater of the Independence Hall contains a 360-degree screen. Only seven other countries have facilities equipped with this type of "Circle Vision", the latest of its kind. The floor area is 1,455 square meters (440.3 pyeong) and a maximum 500 people can watch a movie at the same time. By using a cutting edge projection system and audio equipment, the movie, 'Korea, My Beautiful Land' will leave very imposing and indelible images of Korea for the audience.

The Reunification Monument is a sacred place where people pay visit to pray for peaceful unification between North and South Korea. The main symbolic structures are rainbow- shaped arch towers on top of the mound. Right under the arch towers stands the unification bell, where Koreans can send "unification messages" in the form of light and sound. A special aspect about this place is that individuals can donate bricks for this site engraved with their wills and wishes for peaceful unification.

A Monument to the Nation symbolizing the forward progress of Korea resembles praying hands as well as the wings of birds flying into the azure sky. Embossed on the back front and back of the monument is the Korean flag and on the inside of the monument, mosaic patterns featuring a blue dragon, white tiger, phoenix and a Hyeonmu (an imaginary animal) are used to decorate the four walls. A map of the Korean peninsula is carved on to the granite floor and a bronze sculpture with 24 divination signs stands to show directions. The Monument to the Nation is a landmark of this hall, which stands as high as 51 m.

This statue stands in the middle of the large hall in the Grand Hall. To enrich patriotism and to reflect national consciousness, the images of the Korean independence movement and the undying spirit of Korean people are well displayed in this statue. 274 pieces of granite stones (3-4 ton each) were used to make this statue. Each piece was carved individually and then put together later to complete the grouped statue. Carved on the back of the statue is Cheonji Lake of Baekdu Mountain, symbolizing the bright future of Korea through prosperity, sovereignty, and unification. Tourists can almost feel the erupting energy of Baekdu Mountain from the statue. The soldiers of the Korean Independence army are also carved at both ends of the backside of the statue to commemorate their grievous struggle against Japanese oppression and brutalities.

Patriots Memorial commemorates Korean ancestors who offered their lives to guard their country and the everlasting prosperity of Korea. The site is located at the northern end. 105 meters-long and 3~7.5 meter high of beautifully carved walls surround the Memorial Site like a windscreen, in the middle of the stone altar there is a continuous flowing fountain. Two torches are placed at both ends of the carved stonewalls.

The basic idea of displaying these removed parts is to teach historical lessons of humility and to reflect the serious questions over the dark history of Korean. It can be also used for outdoor forums to discuss and express one's opinions about Korean history and its' future.

The size of this pond is about 26,400 square meters (8,000 pyeong) and can hold 50,000 tons of water. The origin of this water can be traced back to a small spring at the top of Heukseong Mountain irrigated through an open channel. Along with a smoothened waterline around the pond, stones in the rough, clean sand and trees are arranged beautifully to create a peaceful rest area.

The parking lot is located at the entrance of the Independence Hall of Korea. 1,400 vehicles can fit in the parking lot, and in additional 600 vehicles can be parked along the side of a flexible one-way road when there is no space in the lot. The small gardens in the parking lot can be used as rest areas.

These rest areas are nestled in the east and west grounds of the Independence Hall. The area of each clearing is 18,150 square meters (5,500 pyeong) and 7,260 square meters (2,200 pyeong) respectively. These sites are covered with green grass to serve outdoor activities like camping and field trips.

The campsite can accommodate 5000 people with tent areas, cooking areas, water fountains, restrooms, showers, year-round sled slopes, a soccer field and other areas. It also has a gymnasium where various training and educational programs can be conveniently held.
