Korea’s SLOW City 🇰🇷

It was a wonderful day in Jeonju and the way my outfit matched the vibe and surroundings perfectly, made it even more wonderful 🤎 This photo was taken at Omokdae Pavillion. Omokdae Pavillion is where King Taejo stopped by and held a banquet. Here, he thought to develop his own country and here comes the born of Joseon Dynasty. Enjoyed every minute of my one day trip to Jeonju. Calming yet charming. No wonder it's called as the slow city. 📌 Omokdae Pavillion 55, Girin-daero, Wansan-gu, Jeonju-si, Jeollabuk-do #tripxplorproject #southkorea #korea #jeonju #jeollabukdo #asia #history

Jeonju Hanok Village

Slow Life Journey Through South Korea: A Soulful Escape My slow life journey through South Korea was a deeply enriching experience that allowed me to disconnect from the hectic pace of daily life and truly savor each moment. I began my trip in Jeonju, a city renowned for its rich history and traditional culture. Exploring the Hanok Village, I wandered along winding cobblestone streets lined with beautifully preserved traditional wooden houses with curved tiled roofs. The peaceful ambiance, the gentle rustle of leaves, and occasional soft chatter of locals created a timeless atmosphere. Nearby, the Jeonju Cathedral stood as a serene landmark, blending spirituality with history. For meals, I indulged in authentic Korean BBQ — tender marinated meats grilled over charcoal, accompanied by an array of flavorful side dishes like kimchi, pickled radish, and fresh lettuce wraps. Each bite was a perfect harmony of smoky, savory, and spicy notes. Spending the night in a traditional Hanok house was a window into Korean heritage. The wooden beams, paper sliding doors, and ondol heated floors created a cozy, warm sanctuary. Waking up to the soft morning light filtering through hanji paper windows was truly magical, reminding me to slow down and appreciate simple beauty. My next destination was Baegyangsa Temple, nestled in the mountains. Here, I participated in a temple stay that offered peace, meditation, and a deep connection to nature. The afternoon hike from Baegyangsa to Yogsaam Temple led me through tranquil forests filled with towering pines and the scent of fresh earth. The gentle sound of birdsong accompanied each step, grounding me in the present moment. The highlight was joining the unique Temple Food Demonstration program at Chunjinam Hermitage with Ven. Jeong Kwan. Her cooking class was much more than food preparation — it was a soulful lesson in mindfulness and simplicity. She shared heartfelt stories about her life as a Buddhist nun, her philosophy of harmony between humans and nature, and how temple food reflects that balance. Watching her transform humble ingredients into vibrant, nourishing dishes was mesmerizing. The flavors were delicate yet profound — natural sweetness of vegetables, umami from fermented soy, and subtle hints of herbs. Eating the temple cuisine felt like tasting centuries of tradition and spiritual care. The next day brought adventure and awe at Daeunsan Mountain. Riding the cable car, I marveled at the sweeping views of forested peaks and valleys below. The hike to Chilseongbong Peak was challenging but rewarding, with panoramic vistas that stretched endlessly, bathing in golden sunlight. After the climb, resting at Daeunsan Hotel offered comfort and warmth, a perfect place to reflect on the day’s beauty. This slow-paced journey through South Korea was a perfect blend of culture, spirituality, nature, and culinary delight. It taught me the true meaning of slowing down — to be present, to connect, and to find joy in the simple, authentic moments of life. #travel #couplestrip #southkorea #jeonju #Baegyangsa #Daeunsan
