✨Oeongchi sea scent
The walking path is so well-made, and there is a wooden deck road
The walking path doesn't take long, and it takes about 15~20 minutes?
It's pretty because the surroundings are quiet and you can see the ocean
You can also see Sokcho Beach and the Ferris wheel from afar
✨Sokcho Ferris wheel
Ferris wheel on the beach
It has a slightly exotic feel
They say you can see the whole view of Seoraksan Mountain and the ocean if you ride the Ferris wheel
I hope you go there before it's demolished and take some pictures!

How introverts can enjoy quiet moments in Sokcho 🦑
I'm one of those people who doesn't want to go into the ocean. 🥹
I ate squid sashimi the night before, played around near my accommodation, and then slept!!
After checking out at 11 a.m., I went to Lighthouse Grilled Fish for breakfast!
1. Lighthouse Grilled Fish
Getting there: By car
Recommended restaurant: Lighthouse Grilled Fish
Tip: The grilled fish is relatively inexpensive and delicious. 🤤 I went at 11:30 and there was no wait!
After that, I went for coffee! To the shelter with parking! 2. Shelter (SHLTR)
Tip: There's some parking in front of the shelter! The wait here is long, so you should get there early. ㅠ.ㅠ I waited for 20-30 minutes. But the view was amazing!
Then we headed to Sokcho Beach!
There were so many people... but I didn't go in the ocean ㅠ.ㅠ
It'd be sticky!! So I walked along the pine tree path right in front and rode the Ferris wheel!
3. Sokcho Eye
Tip: Just... pay for the ride!! 🥹It might be cheaper if you buy it online! I bought it on site!
After taking a picture in front of Sokcho Eye, I bought some sweet red bean buns at Paikdabang and headed home. 🤤 Even after all this, I still felt exhausted... there were so many people!! Sokcho in the middle of summer is expensive and crowded, but it was still a peaceful trip!

Sokcho Day Trip from Seoul
A day trip idea from Seoul is Sokcho - a lovely sea side town with amazing views of the ocean and a variety of local foods! The best way to get to Sokcho from Seoul is by bus, you can buy the tickets at the Express Bus Terminal either on the day or in advance. You can visit the food market in Sokcho which stretches through many sections and has a variety of foods including some Sokcho specialties. You can also stroll along the beach and the sea side temples.#travel #sokcho

This summer, travel domestically to Sokcho?!
There are many hotels with good value for money near Sokcho Bus Terminal, so it's okay to travel without a car!
Sokcho Beach is right nearby, so it was perfect for enjoying without having to move around too much!!

A place you must visit when traveling to Sokcho 🩵
I went on a trip to Sokcho after a long time 🏖️
As soon as I arrived, I felt really good looking at the wide ocean under the clear sky 🌊. The first destination was the Sokcho Eye Ferris Wheel 🎡!
Situated right next to the beach, when you go up, you can see the wide open East Sea and Seoraksan Mountain at a glance. At night, the lights add to the romantic atmosphere 🌃✨
After getting off the Ferris Wheel, I walked near Sokcho Port and enjoyed a plate of fresh raw fish at the raw fish center 🐟🍣
After that, I went to Abai Village and rode a catfish boat and walked through the alley where the drama was filmed 🚶♀️
You can't miss the sweet Sokcho specialty, glutinous rice donuts 🍩
The last course was the Seoraksan Cable Car 🚡! The weather was nice, so the view from the top was truly artistic.
A short but fulfilling trip to Sokcho, a place I want to come back to 💙.

Sokcho's favorite restaurant
📅 Travel Itinerary
Day 1: Monthly Sokcho
Day 2: Jangang Hoe-jip, Jungang Market, Nokjjaeni
🏨 Accommodation Recommendation Hotel The Blue Terra
🍴 Restaurant Recommendation Monthly Sokcho
Sokcho that I ran to right after work just for Monthly Sokcho!!
The recommended menu changes every day, so it's fun to eat the recommended menu, and the existing menus are also so deliciousㅠㅠ The downside is that it costs a lot of money.. But even if it costs a lot, I'm satisfied. It's really delicious. If you don't order a drink and order a beer, it won't cost that much! And we order a ton of side dishes, lol
On the second day, I went to Jungang Market and tried 3 times but couldn't eat the seed hotteok. I finally ate it on my 4th visit. I packed 10 to fill up my stomach. I froze them and put them in F to eat. It's good~👍🏻
I don't have a picture, but I also went to Wando Restaurant and ate raw squid. It was spicy and sour and delicious, so I bought some soy sauce. lol I was lucky and didn't have to wait, but it got full quickly. I recommend Open Run!

Sokcho Trip – Watching the sunrise and a seafood table at Imo’s Pocha
#ThailandFlightEvent
Sokcho is best enjoyed from the morning.
This trip, I woke up at dawn and headed to Haedoe Park.
The sun slowly rising over the sea,
The silence and grandeur of that moment
is always overwhelming no matter how many times I see it.
The start of the day greeted with the sound of waves,
The sea of Sokcho always organizes my mind.
After taking a walk while taking in the morning air,
In the evening, we went to Imo's Pocha that I had been looking forward to!
This is one of the seafood restaurants recommended by locals in Sokcho,
As expected, there was a long line, but it was worth the wait.
A generous and fresh meal of flounder sashimi, sea squirt, boiled octopus, and squid was served,
and since I ate right next to the sea,
My appetite and mood were the best.
As I listened to the sound of the sea while having a drink,
I thought that this was the night of Sokcho.
Sokcho, where nature, food, and atmosphere are all
abundant. Especially in winter or early spring, when the wind is a little cold,
it is much more emotional.
📍 Haedoeji Park: 51 Dongmyeonghang-gil, Sokcho-si, Gangwon-do
📍 Imo's Pocha: 30-1 Jungangbudu-gil, Sokcho-si, Gangwon-do

Sokcho Ferris Wheel
It was so much fun to ride the Ferris wheel and see the view of Sokcho City. In the evening, the sunset is so beautiful. At night, the Ferris wheel is lit up. The beach is clean and the water is clear.

Sokcho Beach
#HawaiiFlightEvent
Sokcho Beach in Gangwon-do is a great place to take a walk at night, as the walking path next to the white sand beach is softly lit.
There are many couples and families, but it is also a great place to walk alone. On weekends, there is an outdoor media art called ‘Sokcho, the Sea of Light’, where you can take off your shoes and walk along the sandy beach, dipping your feet in the waves at night.
There are many popular photo zones along the walking path along the beach, such as the ㅅㅊ sculpture, the ocean background picture frame, and the stairway to heaven, making it a great place to take pictures!

#AprilTravelSupport #UlsanBawi #Gangwon-doTravel #SokchoTravel #SokchoBeach
A popular day trip course for Sokcho, a Gangwon-do travel destination!
Introducing it.😀
The UlsanBawi course is easy, so you can climb it in 2-3 hours
You can park at Seoraksan Mountain Park and go up!
It's the closest parking lot because it's the entrance to the park.
If you go to the UlsanBawi course in the morning,
I recommend coming down around lunchtime and having lunch & a cafe near Sokcho Beach
and then coming up!

The atmosphere of Sokcho Beach in March
#AustraliaFlightEvent Sokcho Beach was an impressive place with clean white sand and blue sea. It was close to the city center, so it was easy to access, and it was perfect for healing because you could take a leisurely walk in a quiet atmosphere.
As you walk while feeling the sea breeze, you feel your mind clearing, and with the sound of the waves, you can really enjoy a rest in nature. There are many cafes and restaurants nearby, so it was good to have a quick meal or enjoy a cup of coffee. The view of the sea that turned red at sunset was truly fantastic, and it was a feeling that couldn't be captured in a photo.
