2025 Taebaek-si Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in October)

#flowerblossom #100waysoftravel Flower viewing is part of my hobby and this time, I traveled down to view the blossoming of sunflower. There is a vast field with tens of thousands of sunflower being planted at the flower bed, and the blossoming is peak at that time. You can see the vast yellow flower in the middle of Taebaek mountain which gives you a very nice scenery behind the scene. Besides, there are also wild cosmos beside the sunflowers and this adds more colours to the picture. Journey could be a bit far and hilly but it's worth the travel. Will definitely do this again.

The K-Alps of Korea located at 800m above sea level⛰️💚 Taebaek's Montorang Goat Ranch where you can run around with cute goats and enjoy a picnic🐐 You can also rent picnic supplies, and I had goat milk ice cream, which was delicious🍦✨ In addition to goats, you can interact with various animals such as dogs, rabbits, and geese, and it's also great to visit with children :) ⚠️The goats are gentle, but they have horns and are big, so be careful if you visit with young children ⚠️Be careful because they will all flock together if you carry a feeder 📍Montorang Goat Ranch @ 27-2, Hyoja 1-gil, Taebaek-si, Gangwon-do 🎫Admission 5,000/Feeding Experience 5,000 ⏰Mon-Fri 9:30-18:00/Sat-Sun 9:30-20:00 🚗Parking available 📸24.05.14 -------------------------------------------- 💌Follow @seovely._.20 for more travel information and get updates✨ #Jiyoon's Travel Pusher_Jeongseon #Jiyoon's Travel Pusher_Gangwon-do #Monttorang Mountain Sheep Ranch #Taebaek Travel #Taebaek #Jeongseon Travel

Unlike regular chicken ribs, the broth is literally homemade Taebaek, Gangwon-do, famous for its water chicken ribs! It is said that the coal mining workers added broth to the chicken ribs because they would get choked up and ate it, which became the current delicacy👍 I ate water chicken ribs that I used to eat only in Samcheok at the original Taebaek I had to wait a long time because it was dinner time but I didn't regret the taste! The original is different! If you go to Taebaek, be sure to stop by here🧡 - - 📍Taebaek chicken ribs 🧭10 Jungangnam 1-gil, Taebaek-si, Gangwon-do ⏰️10:00-21:00 #Exciting summer vacation #Taebaek travel

Gangwon-do Taebaek Montorang Sheep Ranch #TaebaekTravel #MontBlanc #Gangwon-doTravel #SummerTravel When you think of Gangwon-do sheep ranches, which one comes to mind the most? Most people visit Daegwallyeong, right? The place I visited this time is not as large as the sheep ranch, but it has a pretty ranch like Daegwallyeong! The difference from Daegwallyeong Sheep Ranch is that the sheep are free to roam around, so you can see them right up close. I think it would be good to visit Montorang Sheep Ranch after seeing the Guwagu sunflowers that I uploaded yesterday! ⏰Daily 9:30 - 21:00 🎫Ranch entrance fee 5,000 won 📍Gangwon-do Taebaek-si Hyoja 1-gil 27-2

#Heart-pounding summer vacation #Southeast Asian sensibility Just looking at it, who would know this is Taebaek? I couldn't imagine this scenery at all at the entrance, but the moment I entered the cafe, wow! Isn't this a resort? Just a cafe! And Taebaek on top of that🏝 The owner who created this small space in the cafe with such an emotional atmosphere is really amazing! As I entered the room while praising it, it was also pretty, pretty🩷 Why is there no place that isn't pretty here? I was amazed and took pictures and took pictures! A place where you can take a million pictures Taebaek Cafe Baekbeon-eui Bom🩷 - - 📍Baekbeon-eui Bom 🧭422 Taebaek-ro, Taebaek-si, Gangwon-do Baekbeon-eui Bom ⏰️12:30-20:30

#SnowflowerTravel Hambaeksan is a mountain in Taebaek, Gangwon-do. Although it is a high mountain, it is good because you can drive to the top of the mountain. If you want to climb to the top of the mountain without difficulty, you can park your car near the KBS transmission tower and climb up. There is always snow in the winter, so it is great for a snowflower trip. #Hambaeksan #Hiking

This year, the Taebaek Snow Flower Festival is being held for the first time in several years, so I recommend it as a good place for a winter trip with a bundle course. 🤍 It's not a regular sheep ranch, but a ranch on a steep hill where mountain goats live. The point is that it's so windy and cold! Some Busan people who went without gloves suffered from frostbite for a while. 😂 But if it snows the day before, you can see this beautiful snow-covered landscape, and you can also watch the goats graze. If it's cold, you can warm your body by drinking warm goat milk at a cafe, so it's perfect for a winter travel course🤍 - - 📍Monttorang Goat Ranch (Same for cafe use) ⏰️09:30-19:00 (10:00-16:00 recommended) 🚘Outdoor parking available on the first floor of the cafe building ℹ️Admission fee 5,000 won/There are various experiences such as cafe, sheep feeding, 1 night 2 days car camping, etc. ​ #Winter travel#Taebaek

1. Gumunso When you see it in person, it is a place where you can exclaim in amazement because of its mysterious atmosphere That is why I often visit this place every time I go there, and it is one of Taebaek's representative tourist attractions designated as a natural monument, so you should definitely visit it at least once! ℹ️The parking lot is well-maintained and it is not crowded, so it is easy to look around. 2. Taeseongsilbi Taebaek, famous for its briquette ribs. A place where you can eat high-quality Korean beef (galbisal) grilled with real briquettes at a slightly cheaper price. Eating special cuts here is not cheap, but it is real briquette fire, so it has the same atmosphere and taste as this place, so I visit it often! 🧭4 Gamcheon-ro, Taebaek-si, Gangwon-do ⏰️10:30-21:30

There is a cafe in Taebaek with a boss who is serious about drip coffee. His name is Ajusshi. A.J.C Cafe is that place! It is easy to access because it is near the filming location of Descendants of the Sun at Tongri Tantan Park. A coffee shop with a friendly boss and his wife that you will remember! - - 📍Ajusshi Cafe 🧭92 Tonggol-gil, Taebaek-si, Gangwon-do ⏰️11:00-21:00 (Regularly closed every month)

Since it was upgraded from a provincial park to a national park, it's been better maintained. Personally, I don't think Taebaeksan is that hard. I heard the Snow Festival is starting, so I'll visit^^ #Taebaeksan#SnowFlowerFestival

Taebaek is the coolest place in the country. It is located in the southernmost part of Gangwon Province and has the largest highland garden in Korea. Taebaek has Guwau village, famous for its Korean sunflower fields on this botanical plateau. Every August, when summer comes, this place is covered with giant sunflowers, bringing a fresh yellow color to Guwau. Walking under the sunflower fields, you will feel like a tiny person because they are very tall and have large stems, which can both avoid the sun and make you feel extremely wonderful. Covered with more than 1 million sunflowers and hundreds of different types of flowers on both sides of the walking path, Guwau attracts countless tourists every year. Everyone is fascinated and forgets to go home because of the climate and beauty of this place. In addition to the highland sunflower fields, Gangwon also has countless equally attractive tourist attractions.

Address: 498-123 Dongjeom-dong, Taebaek-si, Gangwon-do Attraction: Gumunso Taebaek, with an average elevation of over 900m above sea level, is said to be the highest plateau city in Korea! They say it was forcibly dug by Japan during the Japanese colonial period! It was really amazing and beautiful😀 Since the fossils of living things are well preserved, it has high value as a geological science experience site, so many scholars and students visit to study! Currently, the commentary program has been suspended due to COVID-19, but I hope the Gumunso cultural commentary program will be resumed. The view from the top of the mountain behind the information center is also beautiful, so I recommend going up there! #Gangwon-do #Gangwon-do travel #Taebaek #Taebaek travel #Gumunso #Geological coastal road #Domestic travel destination #Hot place #Year-end travel #Life travel destination #Life shot spot #Next time here #With nature

The entire village has been recreated as a coal mining village 30 years ago, so I was able to feel the feeling of that time.

I remember the phrase, ‘Dad, be safe today’ that made me feel sad, so my heart was touched😭😭 #Gangwon-do #Gangwon-do travel #Taebaek #Cheoram Coal Mine History Village #Hot place #History #Domestic travel destination #Next time here

My mom loves hiking so much that I've been following her hiking latelyㅎㅎ I heard there was a lot of snow on Taebaeksan so I dressed warmly and went to see the snowy scenery. It was cold but really pretty🏞 I think hiking is the best way to see the snowy scenery👍 #Gangwon-do travel #Hiking #Taebaeksan #Mountain tour #Snowy scenery

Taebaek's one and only small cinema, as its name suggests, it's a cozy yet intimate space. We visited with our children, and the recliner seats allowed us to sit back and relax, making the movie even more comfortable. With a bucket of warm popcorn in hand, there's no better place to quietly enjoy a movie with your child. A small but happy movie date in Taebaek, made a special memory for just the two of us. ❣️159-1 Jangseong-dong, Taebaek-si, Gangwon-do #indoordate #taebaekcinema #taebaektravel #taebaekplacestovisit

The day I spent in Cheoram, Taebaek, was filled with happiness, as if I were trapped in a maple forest. Sunlight shone through the trees, tinged with red and yellow, and the leaves, fluttering in the wind, danced with my footsteps. Walking through the forest, I gazed at each maple leaf, and felt my heart fill with the tranquility of nature. The peace and happiness I felt as I briefly let go of all my worries and spent time simply enjoying the autumn scenery made for a day I will cherish for a long time. ❣️ 64-1 San, Cheoram-dong, Taebaek-si, Gangwon-do #FallTravel #TaebaekTravel #TaebaekPlacesToVisit #CheoramMapleFlowerFlower #Taebaek

I visited the Cheoram Coal Mine History Village in Taebaek, Gangwon-do, a place where time seems to have stood still. Under the blue skies of August, this place, where the dark coal mines of the past are imbued, felt like a brief time travel back in time. Entering the village's entrance near Cheoram Station, we were greeted by old, cramped buildings, and the walls were adorned with photographs and stories of the miners' daily lives. With every step, the scent of a bygone era quietly soaked our hearts. ☀️406 Dongtaebaek-ro, Taebaek-si, Gangwon-do #DomesticTravel #TaebaekTravel #CheoramCoalMineHistoryVillage #TaebaekPlacesToVisit

During my trip to Taebaek with my child, I visited the Taebaek Coal Museum. The name sounds dry and boring, but it was a place filled with fun and vivid coal mining experiences that both children and adults could enjoy. The most memorable part with my child was definitely the simulated underground mine experience hall. The lights were dim, and as we walked through the narrow passageways, the realistic atmosphere of walking through an actual mine shaft made my child a little nervous, but also excited. 🩶195 Cheonjedan-gil, Taebaek-si, Gangwon-do #domestictravel #taebaektravel #taebaek #taebaekplacestovisit #taebaekcoalmuseum
