Let me start by saying that the Brochure of the museum calls it "Gangwon Comprehensive Museum" and so Tripadvisor should also call it that as opposed to a mixed English and Korean name... The geological exhibits themselves more than justify a five star rating but there are many-many more exceptional exhibits in the museum. We drove an hour and a half from Sokcho to check it out and it was more than worth the drive. The museum is under rated and under marketed....
