2025 Cheongju Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in July)

#5月好去处2025 📍Address: 303 1, 청주시 상당구 수영로 🕰️Time: 15:00-23:00 I saw this restaurant after watching an episode of #또간집 (Korean YT) where they went to Cheongju and interviewed local people. When it comes to Cheongju food, the first thing that comes to mind is: pork belly! It's incredible, and there is a pork belly street in Cheongju! I went to this restaurant specifically. I arrived at about 4pm and found that there were two groups dining inside. As the dining time approached, more people came in. There was also a large group of people coming in for dinner later. It felt like they were all familiar customers~ ✨삼겹살 Pork belly ₩14,000/portion We ordered pork belly for two people. There is a very special way to eat pork in Cheongju, which is this soy sauce? Some restaurants will pour it directly on, but here they soak it directly and then grill it. The pork belly is thin, but not super thin, it has a certain thickness! Very delicious! There is no pork taste at all, and the portion for two people is really very substantial! The key point! The CP value here is "invincible high"! Full of side dishes, full of scallions, steamed eggs, soybean paste soup, and they are all delicious, especially its bracken, I love it, and there are ginseng! The side dishes are also delicious when grilled. If you don’t eat enough, you can help yourself. In addition to the first few dishes, the self-service area also has ~ water celery and pickled onions, unexpectedly! Even the king oyster mushrooms are unlimited, too much ❤️ #청주여행 #청주맛집 #청주 #청주핫플 #Cheongju Food #Cheongju Travel #Korea #KoreaCheongju #KoreaLocalTravel #CheongjuFreeTravel #korea #cheongju #CheongjuMustGo #Chungcheongbuk-doTravel

#5月好去处2025 📍Address: 24, Taipei City 🕰️Time: 07:00-19:00 📌Closed on Sundays A rice roll shop run by a couple usually offers take-out, no seats inside, and only two tables at the door of the shop can be used~ The very kind and friendly aunt and uncle smiled at the children eating, asked us if it was delicious... etc., and made two cups of hot tea for us. They were afraid that we would be cold, and pulled out the windproof cloth for the cover. Although there were chopsticks, we were more convenient to use our hands, so we immediately noticed and gave us gloves, which was super considerate🥰 ✨Vegetable rice roll 야채김밥 ₩3,500 ✨Cheese rice roll 치즈김밥 ₩4,000 The vegetable rice rolls are filled with sesame leaves, which adds a layer of fragrance and makes the taste not monotonous! The cheese rice rolls are just sesame leaves replaced with cheese, and they are both delicious! The ingredients are also full ❤️ It’s a pity that there is no yellow carrot to go with it🫣 #cheongju #Chungcheongbuk-do Tourism #Cheongju #Cheongju Travel #KoreaCheongju #Cheongju Food #청주 #청주맛집 #김밥맛집 #한국 #KoreaLocalTravel #koreatrip

#5月好去地方2025 📍Address: 7-6, 131, Taipei City, Taipei 🕰️Hours: 8:00-20:00 📌Closed on Sundays I didn’t do any research on the store, I just passed by and ate there! This is a local food store that you can’t miss if you pass by it! It was full of locals, I was too embarrassed to take photos, the turnover rate was very fast, There were young diners, but more elderly people, it felt like a shop frequented by nearby office workers~ The menu was simple, not much, snow soup and spicy beef soup, both 10,000 won, most people ordered these two, snow soup was more~ ✨Snow soup 설렁탕 ₩10,000 For such a cheap price, there was a lot of meat, and it was very tender, with almost no beef taste. Remember to dip it in the sauce, it was really delicious! It comes with a bowl of white rice, and there is also glass noodles in the snow soup, which is chewy and delicious! In addition, the best match for snow soup is to remember to add a lot of green onions! The soup is light and refreshing, and the overall taste is very good with kimchi and radish. The point is that the side dishes are also delicious😋 #청주 #설렁탕맛집 #설렁탕 #청주맛집 #청주핫플 #한국 #韩国 #韩国地方の旅 #清州 #清州旅行 #清州美食 #korea #cheongju #忠清北道旅游 #雪浓汤

#AbsolutelyFreeTrip ▪️Cheongju Central Park 92-6 Nammunro 2-ga, Sangdang-gu, Cheongju-si, Chungcheongbuk-do I knew it as the location for the TV drama "The Glory", but it was also a place of relaxation for the citizens, with the oldest wooden buildings and cultural relics in Cheongju. I recommend taking out hotteok from this popular hotteok shop and eating it in the green Cheongju Central Park! It also has clean toilets. ❤️A shop within walking distance of Cheongju Central Park❤️ ▪️Cheolcheol Hotteok, near the park You'll definitely have to queue on weekends!!

The sizzling hot iron plate was served with a whole squid 🦑. The staff kindly cut the squid for us, and the noodles and vegetable toppings were mixed and stir-fried together, ready to enjoy. The dish was packed with ingredients, and the portion for two was quite generous. Initially, we thought it might be too greasy, but surprisingly, it wasn’t! The flavor wasn’t overly strong, and when paired with the sweet and sour pork, it was a perfect match! Speaking of the sweet and sour pork, it was absolutely delicious! You might regret not ordering it. For those who enjoy spicy flavors, you can dip it in the sauce provided. I found it not too spicy but rather enhancing the taste!

I had a chance to visit Cheongju for the first time and here’s my experience 🤩 The first place I went after finishing my errands was Dare Dare Cafe. It’s a large bakery cafe with a wide variety of bread. Since I had already had coffee, I opted for juice instead. The cafe has a terrace and offers a view of the river in front of it ☕️ 📍Dare Dare Bakery Cafe 🏠 72, Musimdong-ro, Sangdang-gu, Cheongju, Chungcheongbuk-do 🚘 Parking available Next, I visited Teddy Heyday, a pizza restaurant. It was my first time in Cheongju, and I discovered this amazing pizza place. I heard it’s a popular spot with waiting lines on weekends, but I managed to get in right after their break time by arriving early. For your information, you can use Catch Table for waiting reservations 😊 📍Teddy Heyday 🏠 1st Floor, 89, Sangdang-ro, Sangdang-gu, Cheongju, Chungcheongbuk-do 🚘 Use nearby public parking lots I ordered a half-and-half pizza with Bacon Corn Chicken Pizza and Mashed Potato Pizza, along with a salad pasta. The toppings were incredibly generous, and the mashed potato pizza was so unique! It’s a flavor that you’ll occasionally crave and one that anyone would enjoy 😆 The restaurant has a complete American vibe. Isn’t it just so pretty?!! If I visit Cheongju again, this will definitely be on my list 😊

Located in Yullyang-dong, Cheongju, 'Woo Jjang Baegi' is a hidden gem that meat lovers must visit! 🥩 This place is especially famous for its Mungtigi (sliced raw beef) and Yukhoe (Korean-style beef tartare), made from freshly slaughtered Korean beef, ensuring a tender and savory taste without any unpleasant odor. The Mungtigi offers a chewy and bouncy texture, while the Yukhoe melts in your mouth with its rich and nutty flavor. Topping it with water parsley, sesame oil, and pear slices makes it an even more delightful treat! ✨ The restaurant has a clean and well-organized atmosphere, making it a great spot for dates or group gatherings. 🍽️ The tables are spaced out comfortably, and the staff is friendly, ensuring a pleasant dining experience even for first-time visitors. Moreover, the portions are generous, and the prices are reasonable, making it a highly satisfying choice. Do note that there might be a wait during weekday evenings or weekends, so it's recommended to make a reservation before visiting! ⏰ If you want to experience the true essence of Korean Mungtigi, head to Woo Jjang Baegi in Cheongju for an unforgettable meal! 😋

Last weekend, I visited Cheongju to see the stunning Shasta daisies in full bloom. It was my first time seeing such a beautiful display of fried eggs (Shasta daisies), and I couldn't believe I hadn't discovered this place earlier! As one of Cheongju's iconic spots, the 200-pyeong area was filled with white daisies, and the daisy fountain in the center of the café was absolutely gorgeous. The outdoor huts were especially charming, with many visitors reserving spots and taking lots of photos. While waiting for a reservation, you can take pictures in the outdoor daisy field, making the wait enjoyable. Additionally, the café offers a spacious glass greenhouse and outdoor terrace, providing plenty of seating even during busy weekend afternoons. It was a happy day filled with flower viewing and photo opportunities! 🫧💛 📍Tosung Village @tosungvillage Address: 163-1, Tosung-ro, Cheongwon-gu, Cheongju, Chungbuk 🕰️ Hours: Daily 10:00 AM - 9:00 PM 🚘 Parking available ▪️ Hut reservations available ▪️ Glass greenhouse ▪️ Outdoor terrace

Every spring, I will definitely visit this daisy-themed dreamy coffee shop 토성마을 (Toseong Maeul) in Cheongju, South Korea. It is so beautiful that it looks like a fairy tale scene! From being a quiet secret place on weekdays to now being crowded even on weekdays, the little house now not only requires queuing, but also has a limited time use! If you are obsessed with daisies or like taking photos, you must not miss 토성마을. The most special thing here is the outdoor glass house. Whether it is a selfie or a couple photo, it is as dreamy as a magazine cover. • Store name｜Toseong Maeul 토성마을 • Address｜충북 청주시 청원구 토성 #Cheongju, Korea #Cheongju Cafe #Daisy Season Check-in #Korea Check-in Spots #Cheongju Must-Shoot #Cheongju Flower View Cafe #Korea Spring Travel #Korea Romantic Spots #토성마을 #Cheongju Internet Beauty Spots #Korea Season Limited #Korea Photo Spots Recommended #Cheongju Free Travel #April Good Places 2025

In Cheongju, South Korea, there's a coffee shop that's not famous for its coffee but has become incredibly popular—Poid Carrot (포이드캐롯). As soon as the doors open, long lines form, not for the coffee, but for their limited handmade bread. Upon entering, you'll notice the staff's uniformity, the spacious interior, and the array of freshly baked bread that looks like works of art. Their most popular bread is limited to three pieces per person, but it's worth it! On sunny days, the outdoor lawn is the perfect spot for kids to play and pets to roam. If you're looking for a family-friendly place to enjoy delicious treats, make sure to add this spot to your Cheongju itinerary! • Name｜Poid Carrot 포이드캐롯 • Address｜39-18 Gaposan-ro, Heungdeok-gu, Cheongju, Chungbuk • Hours｜Seasonal adjustments; visiting early on weekends is recommended to avoid crowds.

This Hanok cafe in Cheongju is really worth recommending! ❤ After entering this cafe, the sense of space changes instantly, from the thousand-year-old city to the historical Korean house, the healing feeling is perfect Not only is the scenery beautiful, the bread is actually delicious, the kind that bounces back when you bite it. It's really worth a try. The boss was super nice and gave us a free loaf of bread. He was so nice. 📍 Located in the Hanok complex below Cheongju Sangdangsanseong (상당산성) 🕰 Recommended time: After climbing the mountain city, just stop by to rest.

HUMANITAS in Cheongju is a dreamy Korean-style coffee shop that you’ll want to come back again and again! From the exterior to the interior design, it is very textured, with different romantic scenery in different seasons: in spring, cherry blossoms are in full bloom and the whole atmosphere is like a painting As soon as you walk into the store, you will see a library-like space design, where wooden bookshelves and large glass windows are perfectly integrated. Drinking coffee and reading at the same time will immediately awaken your literary soul📖☕! It is really great to take photos here. Every corner looks like the cover of a Japanese magazine.

I originally just wanted to find an accommodation that was close to the airport and convenient, but I didn’t expect that this Enford Hotel would surprise me a bit. It takes less than 15 minutes by taxi from Cheongju Airport to the hotel, which is a lifesaver for me who just got off the plane and dragged my luggage. The hotel's exterior and public spaces feel like they were recently renovated, and are clean and modern, especially the lobby which is bright and textured. The staff was very friendly during check-in. We had no problem communicating in English. They also took the initiative to help us adjust the check-in time to an early one (originally scheduled for 3pm, but we were allowed into the room at 12pm), which was a real plus! The room was generally comfortable, but there were a few minor drawbacks: the air conditioning didn't seem to be very effective, with the temperature in the room reaching 30 degrees at night. Fortunately, it improved after I asked the front desk to deal with it; the bathroom was newly renovated, but the smell was a bit pungent, which might be a problem with the detergent or ventilation. But I still give it a good score for overall cleanliness. The facilities nearby are superb. Downstairs is the Homeplus hypermarket, and supermarket lovers will go crazy for it. There are also many cafes, breakfast shops, 24-hour convenience stores, and even nightclubs across the street and in the alleys, so you can find everything you need for a good lifestyle. If you like to eat local food like me and don't want to go too far, this place is really suitable The best part is that there is a bus stop right at the door, which takes you directly to the city center business district, so you don’t have to worry about transportation at all. Although this trip was quite tight, I would still like to stay here again if I come to Cheongju next time. ⚠️ Tips: It is recommended to bring your own universal plug or borrow one from the counter The air conditioning in the room is average. You can check the equipment status after check-in. Some floors are still under renovation. Sensitive travelers can ask for quiet rooms in advance. 📍 Store name｜Enford Hotel 엔포드호텔 Address｜충청북도 청주시 청원구 충청대로 114 Time｜Renovation in 2024 #KoreaFreeTravel #CheongjuAccommodationRecommendation #CheongjuHotel #Chungcheongbuk-doTourism #EnfordHotel #KoreaBusinessTravel #HighCPValueHotel #AccommodationNearAirport #KoreaRenovationHotel #KoreaLocalFood #AprilGoodPlaces2025

Cafe Tag One! This cafe actually has two buildings, and many people go into the wrong one. Remember to enter from the large window door in the middle. The door can be pushed open, so don't doubt it, just push it hard! But - no cash is accepted here! You need to pay special attention to the fact that you use the self-service machine to order food throughout the whole process. What's even funnier is that the "Chinese translation" of the ordering machine is only half done, and some of the menus are very confusing 😂, like "Caramel Macchiato" becomes "Sweet Smoky Latte" (something like that), and the main products don't have Chinese options. So it is recommended that you can: It’s actually faster to turn on the translation function on your phone to help you order, or simply use the Korean menu and follow the picture to place your order! But no matter what you order, the coffee and desserts are of good quality and have a high CP value. In addition, the atmosphere in the store is very chill, making it a great place to relax, chat, or take beautiful photos for the internet. 🎯 TAG ONE #1 청주 태그원 Address｜충북 청주시 상당구 상당로115번길 36 Opening hours: Monday to Thursday 10:30–23:00; Friday to Sunday 10:30–00:00 #Cheongju Attractions #Korea Free Travel #청주태그원 #Indoor Attractions Recommendation #Korea is Fun without Defects #Korea Cafe # #Chungcheongbuk-do Attractions #Couple Itinerary Recommendation #First Choice for Family Travel #AprilGoodDestinations2025

You can buy tickets online or at the station. Many departures daily. Upon arrival at Cheongju Bus Terminal, it's about 3km to downtown. You can take public transportation. The area around the station is lively with a Lotte Supermarket across the street, and nearby coffee shops and Olive Young stores. - 📝 What to do? 1️⃣ Musimcheon Cherry Blossom Road (무심천 벚꽃길) A very K-drama-like stream with a river below and cherry blossoms blooming spectacularly along both embankments in spring. 2️⃣ Suamgol Mural Village 📍 58 Suam-ro, Sangdang-gu, Cheongju-si A village on a hillside with traditional Korean houses (hanok) and interesting hand-painted murals from public art projects on the walls.

If you think that only Incheon and Gimpo are worth planning, then you really underestimate Cheongju Airport! This time I chose to enter Korea from Cheongju Airport. As soon as I got off the plane, I felt relieved. There were no crowds, customs clearance was fast, and the overall flow was super smooth. It is especially suitable for travelers who don't like crowds. Although the airport is not big, it has everything you need and is very convenient After leaving the airport, it only takes 20 minutes by bus to reach the center of Cheongju. Compared to the pace of Seoul, this place is more like a warm small town, suitable for you who want to get away from the crowds and travel in depth. If you also want to try a different Korean route, I highly recommend starting from Cheongju Airport. It’s an unpopular route but full of surprises! #Korea's niche airport #Cheongju Airport #Korea Free Travel #Local Travel #Airport Adventure ##Airport Food #Korea Travel Notes #Korea Central Travel #Korea Unpopular Recommendations #Chungcheongbuk-do Attractions #Travel without Looking Back #Korea Girls Travel #MarchGoodPlaces2025

Do you know Cheongju, South Korea, where air tickets are very cheap? In addition to cheap flights, accommodation is also super affordable, as is food. Stay in a large twin room in the city center, it's quiet and comfortable, next to the pork belly street, you don't have to worry about your clothes smelling because there's an "electronic wardrobe" in the room, and ion clips, lotion, computer, charging cable are all ready for you. It only costs 1,200 yuan a night, and if I split it with my friend, it only costs 600 yuan per person. Other room types are even cheaper, 900 yuan a night, this price is really crazy, my friend also said this is his favorite place to stay these days (hey, we stayed in four-star, sea view hotels in other places? 🤣) 🔗trip.com booking link: https://www.trip.com/t/JAp7kOZtOP2 "I've never heard of Cheongju. Would it be boring? Is there anywhere to go?" : Not at all, Cheongju is definitely a thumbs up. If you want to buy things, Cheng'an Street shopping district has almost all the popular chain brands. There is also a huge Olive Young, which is less crowded and spacious. It is super comfortable to shop there. You can also do self-service tax refund. This time I went to N stores and it was the only one that didn't require queuing. The same is true for Daiso. It is large and less crowded, and I had a lot of fun shopping there. As for transportation, in addition to taking the bus, it is highly recommended to call an Uber if there are more than 2 people. The price is reasonable, the car is easy to call, and the drivers are all enthusiastic. You can fully feel the simplicity and warmth of this city. I originally thought of Cheongju as a stopover point to Seoul, but because the air tickets and accommodation were so cheap, I arranged a trip there, and ended up falling in love with this place. There is no noise from tourists, but peace and tranquility instead. Really, I’m lucky to have come to Cheongju, and I’m lucky to have stayed for a few more days, I love this place! I also bought my Cheongju flight ticket on trip.com. 💰Per capita consumption: Super cheap! #NewYearDestinations2025 #KoreaTravel #Cheongju

Cheongju Entry-Level *Must-Visit-Cherry-Blossom-Road* Cheongju Mushincheon Cherry Blossom Viewing** You don’t know until you go there and see the Cherry Blossom Road with your own eyes.

If you haven’t seen cherry blossoms, the easiest way to get started in Korea is to visit Cheongju Musincheon. Air tickets to Cheongju are relatively cheap, and the crowds are not as heavy as those at popular tourist spots. It's worth it to go for two days and one night. Completely surrounded by cherry blossoms, -great-satisfaction- #Cheongju Wuxinchuan #Sakura Road #Seoul Sakura #Chingju Cherry Blossoms #Korean Cherry Blossom #MarchGoodPlaces2025

#Travel itinerary 🩵 After sleeping at my friend's studio for a night, I headed straight to Chungbuk National University! The raw beef bibimbap was so deliciousㅜㅜ The meat pancake and soybean paste stew were filling, so it was a restaurant that had the best taste, quantity, and price! Just ordering one bibimbap was enough to fill an adult manㅎㅎ 🩵 I took a taxi to Cafe Humanitas and spent some leisurely time looking at the beautiful scenery and reading a book~ It's a very large library and cafe, so I think it would be nice to come aloneㅎㅎ 🩵 I took a bus to downtown Cheongju and went shopping and sightseeing! 🩵 You really have to go to Afternoon Pastry Shop, famous for its tarts!!!!!!! Seriously.... It was the tart shop of my life that I regretted buying only one... If you like cookie dough, I highly recommend it 🩵 I ate dinner at a nearby Western restaurant called Margaret, and overall, it was delicious and the interior was pretty, so I felt goodㅋㅋㅋ 🩵 It seems like I mostly just ate, but this alone made my Cheongju trip happy! I recommend itㅎㅎ
