If you've ever noticed the patterns on South Korea's 5,000-won banknotes, you're not unfamiliar with this place. Ojukheon was built during the reign of King Joongjong (reigned 1506-1544), the eleventh generation of Joseon (1392-1910), and is a wooden house with a relatively long history among Korean houses. Ojukheon is the place where Shin Seimdang (1504-1551) lived and where his son Yukok was born. The Korean sexuality perfected by Mr. Yukok is well known to the world as Korean orthodox Confucianism. There are Ligu Memorial Hall, the Dream Dragon Room where Mr. Ligu was born, Wencheng Temple, the ancestral hall dedicated to Mr. Ligu, and the entrance to Wuzhuxuan from the police gate and the four-pillar gate. In addition, there is an imperial pavilion built for the preservation of the inkstones and the Ji Meng Yaojue (a teaching book written by Kurtani for scholars in 1577), which were relics of the 12th year of Zhengjong’s reign in 1788. Wuzhuxuan got its name from the dark bamboos all around it, but what is more famous here is a crape myrtle tree planted in the yard. This crape myrtle tree is "ticklish", as long as you touch it lightly, the tips of the branches will vibrate, as if being tickled. Wuzhuxuan is a wooden building with an elegant style. The Gangneung Municipal Museum, located on the side of Ojukheon, houses materials from different eras in the Gangneung area, including relics from the prehistoric period.

Beginning with "Hwang Jin-yi", which opened a new chapter in Korean historical dramas, Korean film and television works such as "Gong S", "Sungkyunkwan Scandal" and "The Princess' Man" were all filmed in Chuanqiao Village. It is a representative of the local powerful residential buildings 300 years ago, and it is now a well-known Korean drama attraction. After hundreds of years of wind and rain, Chuanqiao Village is still well-preserved. The beautiful curve of the roof blends harmoniously with the surrounding environment, showing the ancient Korean people's idea of connecting with nature. The "boat" in Chuanqiao Village refers to the means of transportation. It is said that Gyeongpo Lake was in front of the gate when Chuanqiao Village was built, so boats must be used for transportation. In the past, Jingpu Lake with a circumference of 12 kilometers was gradually reduced to 4 kilometers in circumference due to the accumulation of sediment for many years, and the depth of the lake center was only one or two meters. Gyeongpo Lake can no longer be seen in Chuanqiaozhuang. Chuanqiao Village has been inhabited by Li Naifan and his descendants. The traditional house style has been well preserved for more than 300 years. It was once selected as one of the top ten most beautiful traditional houses in South Korea by KBS TV station.

Walk along the Jeongdongjin Seaside Promenade for about 10 minutes and you will come to the famous Hourglass Park. It has the largest hourglass device in the world, and it only takes a year for the hourglass to run out. The upper part of the hourglass here represents the future time, the flowing sand represents the present, the golden circle represents the sun rising from the sea of Jeongdongjin, and the railroad track directly below the hourglass that is parallel to the horizon symbolizes eternity. This hourglass clock is said to have been designed by the French cleric Liutprang around the 8th century. Jeongdongjin Hourglass Park was built in 1999 by Gangneung City and Samsung Electronics at a cost of 1.28 billion won to commemorate the millennium. The hourglass clock in Hourglass Park is 8.06m in diameter and 3.2m in width. Jeongdongjin, where the hourglass clock is located, starts from the landmark stone of the road in front of Gwanghwamun Gate, Seoul, and is located in the village just east. Therefore, during the summer solstice, the sun rises earlier on the Korean Peninsula than in the east. If you come to Hourglass Park with your lover, you might as well take a commemorative photo together in front of the romantic hourglass. I hope all people who are in love can hold their hands and grow old with them.

At the Sunrise Celebration, you can not only harvest New Year's blessings, but also see the beautiful sunrise and wonderful performances, making everyone happy to welcome the New Year's morning. Gangneung Dragon Boat Festival Since ancient times, people living in the Lingdong area believe that the city god, the national teacher on the top of the tall and sacred Daguanling Mountain, blesses the people's lives. Every year on May 5 of the lunar calendar, the event held to worship the City God is the origin of the Gangneung Dragon Boat Festival. Gangneung Dragon Boat Festival is a sacrificial event in South Korea that preserves the prototype of the Joseon Dynasty festival. It has a thousand-year history and is designated as a world intangible cultural heritage. Cherry Blossom Festival The Gyeongpo Cherry Blossom Festival is held in Gyeongpodae every April, attracting many domestic and foreign tourists, and it is a representative festival in Gangneung. On the 4.3-kilometer-long lakeside road surrounding Gyeongpodae and Gyeongpo Lake, cherry blossoms in full bloom accompanied by the songs of tourists who came to enjoy the spring spread far into the distance. Various cultural and artistic activities are also held at the intersection. Gangneung Coffee Festival Drinking coffee in Gangneung does not just mean simply like drinking coffee, but also means loving the inherent coffee culture and feeling the taste of coffee. Anmu Beach is also famous for the coffee vending machines that can be seen everywhere. Up to now, more than 150 coffee shops have appeared here. To better render this atmosphere, a coffee-themed coffee celebration is held here every October. There are also many special delicacies next to Gyeongpodae Beach, such as potato balls, soft tofu in thatched cottage, sashimi, steamed cod head, Shacheon fruit (Korean fruit) and so on. Caotang Soft Tofu When tofu is mentioned, the first thing that comes to mind is Caotang Soft Tofu. During the time of King Gwanghae of Joseon, Xu Ye, who served as the deputy envoy of Samcheok in Gangneung, used the sweet spring water in front of his house to process beans, and then seasoned with clean sea water to make tofu. After the rumor that the tofu made in this way is particularly delicious, he named the tofu after his own number "thatched cottage". Chodang tofu, which is tender even on the tip of the tongue, is a representative food of Gangneung where the sea and the land are harmoniously blended. When talking about Gangneung, potato balls first come to mind, and the food that must be mentioned is potato balls. In Gangneung, potatoes can be used as a material to make various dishes. The name is also very interesting, attracting people's attention, and the food that makes people appetite is potato balls. Potato balls are made from mashed potatoes and potato starch in an appropriate proportion, so they are chewy and have a unique taste, which is a must. Sashimi came to the long-lost seaside, and as soon as you stretched out your hand, you could catch two lively fish in the water, make a plate of fresh sashimi, and have a glass of essential wine. Squid and plaice are usually made into water-mixed sashimi and sashimi bowls, especially the seasonal sashimi that can be tasted at a low price. It is a must-see for tourists who come to Gangneung. Hango Hango is a traditional Korean dessert made by mixing grains with honey. Whenever there is a significant event, we will make the snacks required for the event. Even a small snack, we have devoted our ancestors' time and energy. In the Korean Village in Sacheon-myeon, Gangneung City, you can smell the sweet and sweet fruit smell anytime, anywhere, because the whole village is making Korean fruit.

Trip.com User: The KTX is going from Seoul Station and then transfering to Jingputai by taxi. On the first day, it rained so there was no one to go into the water. In the evening, I called a fried chicken takeaway and sat on the beach while eating while blowing the sea breeze, and I could also put off fireworks. The sea is really blue and beautiful. Lifeguards basically have one every 300 meters to go without worrying about safety. Summer is very suitable for playing with the other half or family. It's okay to have no swimsuits. The shops at the beach have life jackets to rent before selling and launching.
춘식이졸귀: When you come to Gangneung, there's no one who doesn't stop at Gyeongpo Beach, and take a lot of photos with your lover on Gyeongpo Beach, along the coastal road. It would be a great memory to take pictures of each other between the pine roads around ~~~!!

Gyeongpo Lake, the lake composed of wind, river and sea, is as clear as a mirror, so it is called Mirror Lake. It has been famous for fishing since ancient times due to the clear water of the lake. However, in order to protect fish, Gyeongpo Lake has become a nature reserve, and fishing has been banned. Gyeongpo Lake is a natural lake connected to the sea, and sand and stones are piled up due to the action of tides and waves, blocking the entrance to the bay, thus forming a lake. Gyeongpo Lake has cultural traces at the end of the Neolithic Age, as well as the story of Hwarang. The pavilion built on the rock island in the lake is said to be the "Bird Rock" plaque inscribed by Song Shilie. Gyeongpo Lake also has a romantic saying of four or five moons rising, that is, one in the sky, one on the lake, one in the sea, one in the wine glass, and one in the eyes of the beloved. Isn't it similar to Li Bai's "Toast to the bright moon, meet the shadows into three people"? However, the former is a romantic meeting, while the latter is a bleak solo drink. At Gyeongpo Lake, visitors can enjoy the dazzling blue sky reflected in the lake water and red-crowned cranes who love daytime activities leisurely fly into the sky. Gyeongpodae, which is famous as the No. 108 scenic spot and one of the eight scenic spots in Kanto, and the Moonbodjeong, which appears like an island in the middle of the lake, and the cherry blossoms raining on the lake surface, add an elegant atmosphere.
