Gangwon Special Self-Governing Province Gangneung · Today’s itinerary

Newtro Gangneung trip full of experiences

'Newtro' hotspots abound in Gangneung, perfect for an experiential trip! The first stop, Gangneung Myeongju-dong Street, is a place where traces of time remain in old alleys, now revitalized into a popular area. You can enjoy trying on modern-era costumes and roaming the alleys as if a drama protagonist, or spend time at cafes and small museums or cultural spaces that retain their old appearance with minimal remodeling. The next course is the Gangneung Curling Center, a legacy of the 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympics! At the curling center, you can enjoy fun curling experiences and skating. Experience a craft brewery at the Birdnamu Brewery, converted from an old makgeolli brewery, and enjoy a glass of handmade beer with Gangneung flavors. How about riding a rail bike next to the refreshing sea the following day? It is also recommended to explore the newly developed Gangneung Wolhwa Street and enjoy delicious snacks at Gangneung Central Market.

Gangneung Wolhwa Street 4

The ‘Namdaecheon Wolhwajeong legend,’ which is also the motif of Chunhyangjeon, has been reborn as ‘Wolhwa Street,’ filled not with ancient legends but with love stories of all people living today. Wolhwa Street, reborn as a sacred place of love, is now all about love. The Namdaecheon Wolhwajeong legend is a touching love story between a man and a woman featuring ‘Muwollang’ and ‘Yeonhwa Buin,’ the parents of Kim Juwon, ancestor of the Gangneung Kim clan during the Silla period. Muwollang, appointed from Gyeongju to Gangneung (formerly Myeongju) during King Jinpyeong's reign, fell in love with Yeonhwa, daughter of a local lord. However, after being ordered back to Gyeongju, Muwollang forgot Yeonhwa, who, under pressure to marry another, sent a letter via a carp to the sea. Meanwhile, Muwollang, after stopping at a market due to his mother's illness, bought a carp, and upon opening its belly found Yeonhwa’s letter. He hurried back to Gangneung, and with the parents’ approval recognizing the divine sincerity of their love, they finally became a married couple. (Source: Digital Gangneung Culture Encyclopedia)

Gangneung Central Market is a representative traditional market located in the Seongnam-dong area of Gangneung-si. It was registered and opened on January 18, 1980, and has been actively operating since then. To the east lies Dongbu Market, and to the west is Seobu Market; as the third market to open following these two, it serves as a core commercial area fulfilling the central distribution function of Gangneung city. Nearby is Seongnam Market, composed of individual stores, and institutions such as the Livestock Cooperative, Nonghyup Mart, and Saemaeul Geumgo are concentrated here, closely connecting the local commercial district. Especially, a variety of street stalls line the roads and alleys, trading local specialties actively throughout the four seasons, allowing you to feel the vitality of a traditional market. The greatest feature of Central Market is that it fully preserves the local character of the Gangneung region. It is a market visited not only by citizens living in downtown Gangneung but also by residents of nearby East Sea coastal farming and fishing villages. Various items including agricultural and marine products, dried seafood, and Gangneung specialty ingredients circulate here, playing a central role in the local economy. During the annual Gangneung Dano Festival, the area around Namdaecheon Danojang near the market fills with a festive atmosphere, becoming even livelier as a traditional market at the heart of the Yeongdong region where various products and people gather from across the country. If you want to experience the life and culture of Gangneung in a space where tradition and modernity blend, Central Market is one of the must-visit travel destinations.
