The Independence Hall of Korea

Reviewed By janellim2016 - Augusta, United States

Lots of sculpture art, walking trails, indoor/outdoor exhibits. There are multiple buildings in a large complex. It’s easy to spend hours taking in the sights.

Seodong Park

Reviewed By thelonious22

Seodong Park is a beautiful park made up of ponds covered in lotus plants. It's a pleasant place to walk around and take photos checking out the lotus flowers when the weather is nice.

Gongju Gongsanseong Fortress

Reviewed By iverdine15

It is easy to come from Daejeon, the hub of transportation. It has good accessibility, and the roads and other cultural assets are well preserved. If you go up the road, you can see the Geumgang area and Gongju at a glance, especially if you go at night, you can see the beautiful scenery along with the lighting. There are many delicious restaurants and cafes around, too.

Gagwonsa Temple

Reviewed By 941AngieJ - Asan, South Korea

Gakwonsa Temple and the Independence Hall of Korea make a great day trip to Cheonan! Gakwonsa Temple was built in the 1970s in hopes for the reunification of North and South Korea. There's a 49-foot-tall Buddha statue there that's really impressive. You'll see Buddhists walking circles around it. There are a lot of stairs, especially to get up to the big Buddha. You can overlook the temple grounds from the highest level. It's gorgeous. There were budding cherry blossoms there today! You can park at the very bottom, along the road near the small gift shop and the huge set of stairs, but you don't have to. There is another parking lot if you keep driving up the road a little way.

Hyeonchungsa Shrine

Reviewed By chrisruggaluffagus - Yorktown, United States

Originally built in 1706 and rebuilt in 1932 the shrine honors Admiral Yi and several generations of his family. This is a great outdoor area that offers over 5km of trails along with beautiful views and a gorgeous pond. It truly is beautiful all year round; I visited in winter. The crisp air, small crowds, and quietness made this place even more special. If you are pressed on time, skip the museum and head straight to the shrine and walk around the pond on your way back to the parking lot. (Approximately 30 min). I recommend spending 1-1.5 hours to see everything. The museum shares history from 1700s about naval warfare and the infamous turtle ships. Videos begin at the top of each hour. The parking lot is huge, and gives you an idea about how crowded this place gets in the spring/summer.

Oeam Folk Village

Reviewed By benjaminmC3144YJ

We loved our experience, able to entertain our teenagers with chestnut roasting, rice cultivating and just exploring around the village with kind and nice people teaching us about the Korean culture in different locations. Play place made of rice and local materials and a nice outdoor cafe with traditional food for a reasonable price.

Yeonginsan

Reviewed By amyrunsoncoffee - Pyeongtaek, South Korea

We have 5 kids (ages 2-14). We parked at a lower level, had our temperatures checked then started on a trail about half way up. That trail was beautiful. We made it about 1 mile in then turned around. We drove on up to the top and realized we should have done that to start with. Entrance fee by car was 9500 for 2 adults, 5 children and the facilities were lovely and peaceful. Easy to maintain distance to comply with Covid rules.
