Today, after a spectacular makeover, it's a shining example of urban revival and a testament to Korea's industrious spirit.       Take a Walk Down Memory Lane!

Yet, thanks to a whopping 3.2 billion KRW boost from the Ganghwa local government, this phoenix has risen once more. Now, it's a treasure trove of attractions: from vintage textile machinery showcases and high-tech viewing rooms to quaint book nooks and multifunctional event spaces. A Blast from the Past Meets the Present! Entering the Donggwang Textile Cultural Center is like flipping open a vibrant scrapbook of Korea's textile legacy. Situated alongside the likes of Joyang Bangjik Cafe and Ganghwa Sochang Experience Center, this hub is a melting pot of Korea's textile milestones. No wonder it's lighting up Instagram feeds and topping travel bucket lists left and right.       Dive into Yesterday, Today! With no admission fee, it's a no-brainer for anyone looking to soak up some culture. Just a heads-up: they hit the pause button every Monday to keep things spick and span for your next cultural deep dive. If South Korea is on your radar, pencil in a pitstop at Ganghwa Island and the illustrious Donggwang Textile Cultural Center. Immerse yourself in Korea's textured past, engage in unique experiences, and craft tales that you'll reminisce about for years to come. #TextilesOfKorea #HiddenGemsOfGanghwa #KoreaBound Join the narrative of Korea's rich fabric.

The area that the guests stay in is the annex. The annex has three rooms, a central wooden-floored hall (daecheong), raised floor (numaru), balcony (jjongmaru), and kitchen. The restroom, which is also fitted with a shower booth, is located outside the building. Since reservations are offered to only one group per day, visitors have the house to themselves during their stay. Because of the building’s unique characteristics, guests are prohibited from cooking indoors; instead, guests are provided with a complimentary breakfast, such as bread, tea, coffee, and fruit. Paid programs on site include tea ceremony, azalea craft on traditional Korean paper, retro-style clothing rental, and photography. Guided tours are offered twice per day at 14:00 and 16:00. The tour takes about 0.5–1 hr and requires a fee of KRW 10,000 (including tea). However, visitors should check the date before their visit, as the guided tour is not available when there are any guests staying in the house.
