Gyeongpoho Lake and Gyeongpodae Pavilion. Two of Gangneung’s historic villas, Ojukheon House and Seongyojang House, have been beautifully maintained for centuries.

Donghae’s two ports, Donghaehang Port and Mukhohang Port, are always buzzing with the energy of coastal life. Donghaehang Port is a base for the distribution of materials, industrial development, and trade. Cruise ferries take passengers to Russia and Japan. Meanwhile, ferries going to Ulleungdo Island depart from Mukhohang Port, which is located near Mukho Lighthouse and the Bukpyeong Fifth-day Market.

Samcheok is a coastal city in the southernmost part of Gangwon-do. With National Road No. 7 at the center, Samcheok is bordered by Donghae to the north and Uljin to the south. Hwanseongul Cave, the biggest limestone cave in Korea, and Daegeumgul Cave are some of the city’s major attractions.

Hoengseong is famous for its local hanu (Korean beef) and the diverse agricultural experience programs the county offers. The lush forests and the road with a scenic view of Taegisan Mountain attract many tourists.

Located 700 meters above sea level, Pyeongchang is home to many ski resorts, making it a major destination for winter sports.
