#traveldiaries Located in Cheongju-si, South Korea, Daecheongho Lake offers a peaceful retreat for anyone seeking a quiet weekend picnic. This beautiful lake is most stunning in the fall when the surrounding trees turn vibrant shades of yellow, creating a breathtaking landscape. The tranquil atmosphere, especially during this season, makes it a perfect spot to unwind and enjoy nature away from crowded tourist spots. While there is a direct bus line to Daecheongho, the intervals between buses can be quite long, making travel by car a more convenient option for those who prefer flexibility. The lake itself is vast, with several destinations to explore, but I highly recommend visiting Cheonsangui Garden. This area offers one of the most spectacular views of the lake, providing the perfect backdrop for a memorable picnic. Whether you're there to relax by the water or take in the beauty of the changing leaves, Daecheongho is a hidden gem that guarantees a refreshing break from city life.

#autumnseason Autumn, the season of festivals in Daejeon, South Korea, seems to be the most enjoyed time of year. You can find local people organizing festivals of all sizes, celebrating the season. Flowers are everywhere, especially daisies. There's even a Daisy Festival held in the Yuseong district, where Yurim Park is literally covered in flowers. It's such a beautiful sight, like stepping into a wonderland. If you have the chance, visit Daejeon in autumn to experience the local festivals.

#traveldiaries Located in the central region of South Korea, Daejeon, often called the capital of Science and Technology, comes alive at night with its stunning city lights. The nightlife is vibrant, especially with students from local universities out and about, creating an energetic atmosphere filled with endless events. Popular spots include Gungdong Street, nestled between Chungnam National University and KAIST, where bars, pubs, and coffee shops stay open all night. The Expo Science Park is another highlight, featuring a beer festival during summer weekends—grab a beer and enjoy the water music show. Daejeon Skyroad, a modern pedestrian street with a wide variety of local food and restaurants, is just a 15-minute walk from Daejeon Station. For a quieter vibe, Yurim Park offers a beautiful setting for a peaceful picnic or a relaxing time outdoors. Notable Attractions: 1- Daejeon Shinsegae 2- Gungdong Street 3- Churros 1500, Gungdong Street 4- Coffee Bereude, Daejeon Dong-gu 5- Rimchun, Daejeon Dong-gu 6- Jungang-ro 7- Yurim Park 9- Daejeon Expo Science Park 10- Daejeon Skyroad #korea #daejeon

Travel and enjoy a warm cup of coffee while looking at the ice wall in Daejeon!? There's news that an ice wall café has appeared in Daejeon, and I went there without much expectation, thinking it wouldn't be anything special, but I was surprised by the unexpectedly majestic and overwhelming ice wall. The ice wall was beautiful, but there were also a lot of plants inside, which made me feel really fresh and pleasant in winter :) It would be nice to save this place and visit it sometime.

#Emotional Cafe At first, I got confused about the way to get there and got lost, but if you search for Sutonggolsae Songi on Navi, it's right below the sign! It's divided into individual rooms, so you can use it privately, and most importantly, each room has an air conditioner, so you can stay cool!🌿 The sandwiches are served in a rattan basket that gives you a picnic feeling :-) I recommend Sosorim, which has a nice cafe atmosphere and delicious sandwiches 🌿 🌿 Sosorim 📍 Daejeon Yuseong-gu Dongseo-daero 184-45 Sosorim ▪️Daily 09:30 ~ 19:00 ▪️Last ​​order 18:15

It’s also known as the representative bakery of Daejeon and the pride of the city. The bakery is famous for its bread and pastries, which are made with fresh and quality ingredients. The bakery has a variety of products, such as bread, cakes, pies, cookies, and donuts. The bakery also has some special products, such as the red bean bread, the cream cheese bread, and the garlic bread. The bakery is always crowded with customers, who are eager to buy and eat the bakery’s products. The bakery also has a cafe, where you can enjoy the bakery’s products with some coffee or tea. The cafe has a cozy and pleasant atmosphere. The Sungsimdang bakery is a perfect place to visit for anyone who loves bread and pastries.

The best boiled pork stew restaurant in Daejeon, Jeonmin-dong Hanwoo Gomtang 👍 The business hours are 10:30-21:00, but it is a place that is always crowded for dinner or lunch, so you must wait. It is only a simple side dish of kimchi and cubed radish, but the soup is delicious and it is good for drinking! It is a local restaurant that is always crowded because the ingredients such as boiled pork, cabbage, mushrooms, water parsley, and glass noodles are diverse and fresh. #HotPlace #GourmetExploration #CityTrip #DaejeonGourmet #Bulgogi

Address: 2nd floor, 26 Jungang-ro 121beon-gil, Jung-gu, Daejeon Atmosphere/Facility: This is a cocktail bar that only I know.. If you bring friends, they'll all go crazy 🫶 Foreign pop songs play softly, and under the dim lights, you can light a yellow candle and chat while drinking cocktails 🍹 The tables are spaced out appropriately, so you have privacy ☺️ Key Point: If it's your first time at a cocktail bar, you should definitely try the Hwamong signature menu!! In addition to the signature menu, you should definitely try Faust 💛 The side dishes are not that much for a basic cocktail bar, so I recommend having a hearty dinner before going ✨ Average price per person: The basic cocktail is around 9,000 won, so it's good to set aside at least 20,000 won! Rating: Every time I bring my friends to drink at the end of the semester, I always go there 🫶 I've been there more than 5 times ㅎㅎ I brought my boyfriend too and he loved it 💗 Five stars ㅎㅎ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #Daejeon #DaejeonHotPlace #HotPlace #DaejeonPub #DaejeonTravel #DaejeonDateCourse #CocktailBar #SeonhwaDong #SeonhwaDongRestaurant

It's been so cold these days that I'm only looking for indoor dates, but I went to The Grill, a self-barbecue place with Donghaksa Temple as the background, which is great for dates. A place where you can buy meat, snacks, etc. at the store and grill them at the indoor campsite! It feels like you're visiting a pension, and the scenery and air are so nice. You can have a fire in front of the firewood or roast marshmallows. #WinterTravel #TheGrill #WinterIndoorDate #DaejeonIndoorBarbecue #Barbecue #IndoorDate #HotPlace
