Saengbiwon[Korea Quality] / 생비원[한국관광 품질인증/Korea Quality]
Gyeongsangbuk-do(Goryeong-gun)

Saengbiwon is a traditional hanok pension located 400 m above sea level on Gayasan Mountain, Goryeong, North Gyeongsang Province. Its picturesque front garden, full of clay pots and wildflowers, and the dried persimmon hanging on the porch come fall give the pension a comfortable, idyllic atmosphere. Clear water from the Sangbiri Valley flow near the pension and a footpath along the reservoir offer great opportunities to enjoy the nature of Gayasan Mountain. Opening the window brings one face-to-face with the four seasons of the mountain, while the pavilion in the garden emanates a cool, slow-paced enjoyment of nature. All water used in the pension is drawn from a natural mineral spring 150 m below the land, giving the water a crisp and refreshing taste. The seven rooms of the pension, including the Dongbaek, Maehwa, Mongnyeon, Moran, and Hwangtobang are furnished with red clay and Cheongsong hanji (Korean traditional paper) interior, giving them a characteristic hanok look. Wooden wardrobes and thick cotton quilts bring in mind the image of a grandmother’s warm house. Two of the rooms are heated with traditional gudeul floor heating, which is a blessing in the biting heat of winter. All rooms have access to Wi-Fi, equipped with modern bathrooms, electric kettle, pressure rice cooker, and simple cooking utensils. Only the Hwangtobang room allows cooking within the room, and guests in other rooms must use the communal kitchen and barbeque areas. There is also an annex, which hosts exclusively group visitors and can be used as a seminar room and a training site. . Saengbiwon’s other pride is the traditional sauces, made in house for four generations. Visitors can reserve an elegant Korean breakfast, served in brass tableware, made with Saengbiwon’s handmade sauce from Korean soybeans. Saengbiwon also offers programs like sauce-making, Korean malt candy-making, tofu-making, Korean sweets-making, and tea ceremony.

Gwangju Gossaum Festival
Gwangju(Nam-gu)

In Gossaum, the term 'go' originates from otgoreum (the ribbon bow on a traditional Korean jacket) and refers to a knot tied in a long string to make a loop. Therefore, gossaum, a compound of go and "ssaum," which means fight, indicate a "match or fight against two teams pulling on knotted ropes." Traditionally, Gossaum has been a competitive team sport enjoyed by men. It was often played in the Jeollanam-do area around Jeongwol Daeboreum (the 15th of January according to the lunar calendar). Gossaum, which has been enjoyed for over 800 years, was designated National Intangible Cultural Asset No.33 in 1971. The Gwangju Gossaum Festival, a gala event for gossaum, was first held in 1982. It attracts more and more visitors each year and contributes to promoting the local economy. At the Gossaum Festival, one of the longest-running folklore festivals in Korea, various folk activities originating from traditional Korean culture are performed. The folk customs have gained recognizable names and diverse events that are planned each year, including a celebration of the eve, a service to worship the god guarding the village, a village exorcism, gossaum demonstrations, folk play performances and activities for visitors to participate in, such as a Daeboreum food tasting and a plaza where one can experience traditional folk games. On the eve of the festival, a wide range of events are organized for visitors including kite flying, a traditional costume exhibition with a chance to try them on, rope walking, Daeborum food tasting (rice balls, rice mixed with vegetables and seasoned herbs), and jumping over burning straw ropes to chase away one’s bad luck. There are also many other attractive spectacles to take in including a gossaum nori photo exhibition, a traditional folklore contest, a Nanta (percussion) performance, fireworks, the burning of a very large daljip (a “moon house”), a village exorcism and saem gut (well exorcism) that goes on until dawn. A variety of programs are also lined up including a Daedong farm music performance consisting of about 300 musicians, gossaum demonstrations, Korean traditional martial art performances and a tug-of-war between two teams pulling a thick rope. The greatest highlight of the Gwangju Gossaum Festival is the burning of a 20-meter high, 15-meter wide daljip, which translates literally to “moon house.” The daljip, a pile of branches, is the largest one in Korea and its flames can rise as high as 100 meters or more, inspiring awe among all viewers. Visitors can also enjoy the traditional cultural heritage of the Gwangju area since a number of cultural relics including General Go, Gyeong-myeong sites (Pochung Shrine and Samgangmun Gate) are located within one kilometer of the venue.

[Ganghwa Nadeul-gil Course 7] Road to the Mud Flats ([강화 나들길 제7코스] 갯벌보러 가는 길)
Incheon(Ganghwa-gun)

Nadeul-gil means a leisurely outing (nadeuri) road. Comprised of 19 courses in total, the Ganghwa Nadeul-gil Trail offers a variety of historical assets and cultural sites to see. Each Nadeul-gil course connects Ganghwa Fortress outposts that are located every 1.3 km on high ground along the walking paths. The trails are on the island of Ganghwa which holds many Goryeo Dynasty remains that are important to Korean history. Fortresses that stood against Mongolian invasions are still standing and many of the Goryeo Kingdom’s palaces and royal tomb sites are also found in Ganghwa region. Exploring the major cultural heritage sites dispersed throughout the town can be just as fun as exploring Ganghwa’s natural beauty. The sunset on the Seohae (West coast), expansive open mud flats, views from Marisan and Goryeosan Mountains and the peaceful farming villages are just a handful of the sights along this walking trail. The establishment of Ganghwa Nadeul-gil’s begins with the ancient scholar Go Jae-hyeong (pen name Hwanam), who left his hometown Ganghwa on a spring day in 1906 when the peach trees were in full bloom. He walked through more than 100 villages around the whole island. Back home, he composed poems about his journey and published them under the title of “Simdo Gihaeng (Simdo Travels),” Simdo being another name for Ganghwa. During his travels, he sang songs of his home Ganghwa. Thanks to his work, people can now follow in the footsteps of Hwanam and his appreciation of the beautiful scenery and great people of Ganghwa Island.
