#Cafe with a good view 📍Gunsan Seonyudo Caffeine Master Osan View Caffeine Master, the first thing I search for when I travel! I visited this cafe because I heard it was a must-visit cafe when I went to Seonyudo Island in Gunsan!

#Ho-kangs 💕It's a place where I'm more satisfied and comfortable than I thought and expected. 💕 The lobby, room, and bathroom on the first floor were all very clean and spacious. As soon as I entered the room through the clean and modern hallway, I felt Wow......! It's really spacious.. The room condition was also good, and it was very clean and niceㅎㅎ This hotel is a non-smoking hotel, so it was comfortable and even in winter, it was a very warm place to stay. !! There aren't many places to stay in Gunsan, but I recommend Gunsan The City Hotel, which was very comfortable and nice even for a woman traveling alone ♡ 📍49 Soryong 1-gil, Gunsan-si, Jeollabuk-do #GunsanTravel #GunsanHotel #GunsanHo-kangs #Gunsan

#Jeonbuk #Gunsan #GunsanCafe #GonggamSeonyu A gallery cafe with such a beautiful space 🖼️ How about a leisurely cup of coffee in a quiet place? A place a little bit away from Gunsan city center, but worth a visit ⏱ Business hours Daily 10:00-18:00 * For more information, refer to Naver Map 💡 No kids zone (under 10 years old) Infants and pets are not allowed ----------------------------------------------- 📍Gunsan GonggamSeonyu 53 Suwangsae-gil, Okgu-eup, Gunsan-si, Jeollabuk-do

📍Stay Okdo, 19-8, Munyeodo-dong-gil, Okdo-myeon, Gunsan-si, Jeollabuk-do There are many photo zones and you can use the private house! There is a large jacuzzi, so you can soak in warm water and heal yourself~! Also, the accommodation itself is huge, so it is a place where you can play without feeling cramped even if you travel with your family~! In addition, various comic books and board games are provided, so it is a place where you can enjoy yourself without being bored.

There is a bus every hour from Gunsan. Is this Seonyudo? Seonyudo has beautiful scenery, worthy of being the hometown of scholars. There are islands called Gogunsando lined up, and now they are connected by bridges and roads, making it easy to get to from Gunsan. It is like an island embracing a beach in exotic Southeast Asia. It would be even more beautiful at sunset, but since it is a trip to Ajossi, the sunset is visible even during the day. After walking along the beautiful Seonyudo beach, I felt the beauty that the sunset gives to the island at my age. I highly recommend visiting Seonyudo.

#Cafe with a good view I recommend Cafe The View in Seonyudo!! The cafe is made of glass, so you can see the beautiful scenery of Seonyudo clearly, so the view is really good!!💙 The ocean view made my heart feel open and healed!!:) For drinks, I ordered mugwort latte and tangerine drink, and the mugwort latte tasted good and was sweet, so it was really delicious! You can also bring your pet dog, so I played with another customer's dog, and the tree was cute and nice🐶🫶 #Cafe travel #Gunsan #Ocean view

#Ho-kangs I enjoyed a ho-kangs at the Avon Hotel Family Room and was very satisfied!! First of all, the breakfast was 15,000 won, which was cheaper than the hotel breakfast buffet, so I didn't expect much, but I was surprised that there were more food menus and they were delicious than I thought! Above all, Korean food such as braised short ribs and vegetables were the best,,!!! Also, the room was clean and nice! There was a sofa and table, so I got some agujjim to go and ate it, which was convenient and nice!! I recommend Gunsan Avon Hotel!! #Gunsan travel #Domestic travel destination #Vacation travel

#SnowflowerTrip #WinterTrip #GogunsanArms 📍Gunsan, Daejangbong Peak of GogunsanArms 'Is this Korea..?' snowy scenery ⠀ It's been snowing a lot lately, so many people are going to see the snow! So today, I'm going to share the beautiful scenery of Daejangbong Peak of GogunsanArms in Gunsan when it snows 😆 ⠀ You have to walk up for about 20 minutes, but there are deck stairs here and there, so if you have crampons, you can climb up without much difficulty! (If it snows, crampons or non-slip shoes are essential!!!!! I didn't bring crampons,, so it was a bit difficult) ⠀ Maybe because it snowed the day after, the weather was so nice, and the blue sky, blue sea, and snowy scenery were all added together, so it was really pretty. I especially thought the West Sea was this pretty 🫢 ⠀ It's a place with a different feel from Gunsan, so it would be good to travel with Gunsan City! ⠀ 📌 Gunsan, Gogunsan Islands Daejangbong ✨ Jeollabuk-do Gunsan-si Okdo-myeon Daejangdo-ri San 1 ‼️ In winter when there is a lot of snow, wearing crampons is recommended ⠀

#Winter travel ✔️Address: 45 Gadoan 1-gil, Gunsan-si, Jeollabuk-do ✔️Atmosphere/facilities: Located on the way from Gunsan Port to Bi-eung Port, somewhat far from the city center, recommended to use your own car rather than public transportation, Gunsan 2-star tourist hotel, somewhat outdated facilities, factory view, atmosphere between a motel and a hotel, friendly staff. ✔️Key points: Recommended for those who are traveling to Gunsan by car and looking for a cheap hotel. The exterior looks quite new, but the interior is somewhat unsophisticated and has an interior reminiscent of a motel. I do not recommend it to those who want a stylish and new hotel. Also, if you are assigned a room at the back of the hotel like me, you will have a factory view, so it would be good to consider it for those who want a nice view. In fact, it is a place where it is difficult to find many advantages such as transportation, room condition, and facilities, so it would be good for those who value a low price. The staff is friendly and it is easy to get information on good restaurants and tourist attractions. *Please note that breakfast is not currently available. ✔️Average price per person: 41,000 won~ ✔️Rating: ⭐️ #Ho-kang-seu #Gunsan-hotel

There are many places to visit in Gunsan, but I was captivated by the exotic atmosphere at first sight. It's a bit far from Gunsan City to go here for a photo, but it's not a bad course to drive along Saemangeum Seawall Road. And Cafe Old Brick, which I was really upset about when I heard the news that its roof collapsed due to heavy snow a while ago. It's a pretty famous place in Gunsan, and we always stopped by there whenever we went to Gunsan. I hope it gets repaired soon so we can meet again happily☕️ 📍Gunsan Yami Island 📍Saemangeum Seawall Rest Area 📍Grassland Photo Studio 📍Cafe Old Brick #GunsanTravel

#Cafe with a good view #Bread view cafe 📍 177 Jungang-ro, Gunsan-si, Jeollabuk-do Gunsan Iseongdang Main Branch Iseongdang, a famous restaurant in Gunsan where people waited in long lines You have to wait in line to buy the signature bread, but you can buy other breads without waiting at the cafe and bakery right next door. It was so much tastier than I expected that I regretted not buying it😆

🛤️ Gyeongam-dong Railroad Village 📍 14 Gyeongchon 4-gil, Gunsan-si, Jeollabuk-do 🚘 Parking available 💡 Experience old school uniforms and dalgona Gyeongam-dong Railroad Village, which brings back old memories, has various options such as taking pictures wearing old school uniforms or renting clothes for a retro feel, eating dalgona or buying and eating junk food, or having fun with family #GunsanTravel #HotPlace

🏞️ Daejangbong 📍 Jeonbuk Gunsan-si Okdo-myeon Daejangdo-ri 1 🚘 Parking available 💡 There are 2 courses 1. Hell's Stairs Course Steep slope 20 minutes (Yeonhwa Peak) 2. Return course Gentle slope 30 minutes ▫️ Visit in November Low course for hikers! However, it is difficult because of the difficulty level, but if you climb little by little, you can see a pretty peak. In fact, it is said that hiking is better when it is cool or a little cold like now,, #Hiking #Hot place #Gunsan travel

📸 Grassland Photo Studio 📍 1st floor, 12-1, Guyeong 2-gil, Gunsan-si, Jeollabuk-do ▫️ Old Gunsan Customs Office 📍 244-7, Haemang-ro, Gunsan-si, Jeollabuk-do 🚘 Parking on the right side of the road When it comes to Gunsan travel, these two most representative attractions are Grassland Photo Studio, which was a Christmas photo shoot location in August, so people lined up to take pictures. Both are not that far away, so I recommend parking and walking there and back. #HotPlace #GunsanTravel

If you go to Gunsan, you must visit Isungdang Isungdang is connected to the new building and the main building, and there are a lot more breads in the main building than in the new building. The famous breads are red bean bread and vegetable croquette, and I will give you some tips on purchasing them. You can see a long line in front of the main building, but if you wait in line, you can buy red bean bread and vegetable croquette, and if you don't want these two, you can just go in without waiting in line! Da Michelin ⭐️⭐️ #Gunsan #GunsanTravel #Isungdang

The Grassland Photo Studio located in Gunsan is one of the most famous places in Gunsan, so much so that anyone who visits Gunsan must take a commemorative photo there at least once. There is a waiting line to take a photo, but the photos are worth the time, so be sure to stop by. #CityTrip
