Jeongdongjin Beach

#koreatrip After all the hours of walking and seeing at other sightseeing spots in Korea, naturally, this beach was a breather. For relaxing and unwinding, plus, water playing and taking pictures. Quite a nice place. Otherwise, there's nothing much to do. You can see a ship on the hill! This place can arrives by public transportation but you might have a long wait between Gangneung station and Jeongdongjin station. If you live in other cities like seoul and planning for one day trip then suggest I you have a look on the train schedule or you might back to seoul in the midnight or even no train back to Seoul.

Zhengdongjin Grand Ship Hotel

Zhengdongjin Grand Ship Hotel This is my third visit to Zhengdongjin. Today is overcast, but it still can't hide the beauty of Zhengdongjin. I've seen this grand ship hotel three times now, but never entered. Today, I'm finally going in. The hotel's park environment is very nice, facing the sea and backed by mountains. The air quality is excellent. The balcony is also great. The hotel's restaurant windows are quite dirty, and the food is just so-so. There isn't much to do in the hotel, but it's nice for a relaxing walk or a holiday stroll. The service attitude is just average. The main attractions are the good air quality and the beautiful sea, and that's enough. The luckiest thing today is that I succeeded in tossing a coin into the wishing well haha, so happy. Also, an important point, maybe because the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday is coming up, there are hardly any people here at this time, super quiet.

Travel is a kind of practice, and also an art

Travel is a kind of practice, and also an art. ✅Haslla Art World in Gangneung, a harmonious space where natural beauty and artistry perfectly blend, connects to the nearby sea. The sea breeze brings a peaceful and romantic atmosphere. The art of travel collides with the unique artworks here to create different sparks. The outdoor park also has many art sculptures. The color of the distant sea water is very beautiful. Not only can you appreciate art works and feel different thinking worlds, but also sit in the cafe in the art gallery to enjoy the sea view, quiet and leisurely, very suitable for independent tourists or couples to go. There are many popular photo spots here, it's really a big shot everywhere. 🏠Address: 1441 Chestnut Road, Gangdong-myeon, Gangneung, Gangwon-do

In my round heart blooms the Haslla Art World 🌊.

#ForeignVibes During my trip to Gangneung, I had a cultural experience at the Haeslla Art World, a complex art space located by the sea. I was pleasantly surprised to find out that Haeslla, which I thought was a foreign name, was actually an old name for Gangneung during the Goguryeo Dynasty, which made me like it even more. The space features various installation and land art, as well as modern art pieces that never cease to amaze me, all arranged in perfect harmony with photo zones scattered throughout. After the tour, I finished off with a cup of tea and a sweet dessert at the ocean view cafe, completing a satisfying sensory journey. The trip was made even more perfect by the unexpectedly beautiful photos taken at the main photo zones. 🌊✨ 🌊Haeslla Art World 📍1441 Yulgok-ro, Kangdong-myeon, Gangneung-si 🕰️09:00-18:00 (Open all year round) 🚘Parking available

Haslla Art World!

#dreamdestination This is the beautiful Haslla Art World. You can see a wonderful sight. It's a great place to go with family, friends, and lovers. I recommend going on a day when the weather is nice.

Who understands the pain of a photographer? Arthur Luo's art world is really super out of the picture!

Arthur Luo's art world is located in Gangneung, South Korea, most of the art inspiration comes from life, the first picture is the curator, it is usually difficult to meet, I also belong to super lucky, artists really look very artist, unkempt but can not hide the unique temperament! My favorite is the perspective of the fourth picture, a piece of the gods!

Titanic Hotel in South Korea

This hotel totally exceeded my expectation! I could catch the sunrise from my room! Love the design of the hotel so close to a cruise! Room was very spacious and clean! Kitchenette was clean and pretty well equipped! Amenities not provided which you have to get it at the convenience store at their basement. Not a bad idea as I would think it's quite environmental friendly (less waste). Location wise, good and bad. Good because I love the serenity of the area! Perfect sunrise room and even if you don't get the sunrise room, it's less than a 5 minute walk to the sunrise viewing point outside the hotel. Near the sunrise viewing point is the entrance of the Jeongdong Simgok Sea Buchaegil. Bad because it's right up on the mountain at the end of Jeongdongjin beach, which is about 15 minute walk up (very steep). Food at Jeongdongjin beach was good! Service wise was average, nothing impressive but at least they tried to help. Not all the staff were able to express well in English. Noted that most guests were all Koreans. #newyearadventure #yearofrabbit #tripblazers #southkorea #travelinspiration

Gyeongpo Beach in Gangneung

#mytripvlog #gyeongpobeach #beach #gangneung #southkoreatravel

cherry blossom festival in Gyeongpo Beach

#dreamdestination In spring, there is a cherry blossom festival near Gyeongpo Beach. There are a lot of people. Cherry blossoms on Gyeongpo Beach in Korea are very famous. You can see really beautiful pink trees.

Amazing Gyeongpo Beach

waking up to the sound of East Sea

Gangneung, located about 2 hours away from Seoul is a perfect getaway from the city life and unwind yourselves. It is easily served via KTX to Gangneung station directly. Having travelled to both Busan and Gangneung, I personally prefer the beach in Gangneung than Busan as it is less touristy. Travel within the city can easily be done via bus or taxi which is a plus.

Anmok Coffee Street

#dreamdestination It is a sea of “Anmok Coffee Street”! There is a beautiful sea surrounding Coffee Street! Take a walk on the beach and enjoy the cool breeze!

Anmok Beach, the style in Gangneung

#beachaholic Gangneung, being the seaside town/city in South Korea overseeing the Eastern sea, is famous among tourists especially during summer season, where outdoor activities are permitted. One of the spot that attracts most of the tourists is Anmok Beach. Another special thing about this beach is the cafe street, where the whole stretch of street are filled with nice and stylish cafes. The origin of coffee culture in Korea can be traced back to Gangneung, and spreads nationwide from there. Anmok Beach is selected due to its proximity to the shoreline, where visitors can enjoy the sip while overlooking at the vast sea.

The beach is often packed with families on a vacation. Right in front of the beach is Anmok Port, where around 23 fishing boats can be moored to unload their catch of seaweed in the spring; flatfish, squid, octopus in the summer; and sailfin sandfish, and pollack in the fall and winter. The place has also gotten more popular because of the cafe street that sells coffee at reasonable prices. #wintergetaway #wintergetaway

When talking about the sea in South Korea, everyone's first reaction is Jeju Island. Yes, the scenery of Jeju Island is really beautiful. It makes me feel that I have not felt enough after many times. However, the Anmu seaside in Gangneung was inadvertently stunning to me. The blue water reflects the blue sky, and the seagulls fly over the sea. I admit, this is the scene that I have not seen so many Jeju Island. The sense of the picture is really pleasing to the eye. It is a picture of the healing system. To the Anmu seaside, next to the coffee street, how can I not enter the store to drink a cup of coffee, eat a piece of dessert, in the early spring season, Anmu seaside is still sea breeze, sitting in the cafe to see the sea drink coffee, is again A good choice. There are so many coffee shops on the coffee street, you can choose one of them. After all, the quality of the coffee shop that can survive on this street will not be worse.
