[Ganghwa Nadeul-gil Course 6] The Birthplace of Hwanam ([강화 나들길 제6코스] 화남생가 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.

Green Rich Farm
Chungcheongnam-do(Taean-gun)

Green Rich Farm (Formerly, Cheongsan Arboretum) is home to over 200 different kinds of wildflowers, trees, and water plants such as lotuses and water lilies. Bridges and trails in the garden make it a romantic place for couples as well as a good place for children to experience nature up close. Since its opening in 1990, the garden is only open July through August, when the Taean Lotus Festival takes place, welcoming visitors who come to see the lotus flowers. It takes about two hours to tour the garden. The best time to enjoy the lotus flowers in full bloom is between 11:00 and 15:00. After 15:00, the lotus flowers begin to close their petals.

Baeksajang Beach
Chungcheongnam-do(Taean-gun)

Baeksajangpogu Port is located just 4 km southwest of Anmyeondo Bridge, the bridge connecting the mainland with the island. Near the port is a white sandy beach called Baeksajang. At Baeksajang Beach, the shimmering white sand stretches endlessly and the ebbing tide creates a different view of the horizon. Though the water level has a large tidal range, the beach's moderate water temperature makes it a safe and enjoyable place to take a dip in even until late summer. The beach is 1.2 km long and 300 m wide, and is made up of fine silica sand. Just around the corner is Sambong Beach. Baeksajang Beach is one of the major sources of jumbo shrimp, and during autumn, crowds come to enjoy the taste of fresh jumbo shrimp. The beach even holds a prawn festival every fall when jumbo shrimp production peaks.

Bogildo Island (보길도)
Jeollanam-do(Wando-gun)

Located about 12㎞ off the southwestern coast of Korea, Bogildo Island is accessible by ferry from both Wando-gun and Haenam-gun in Jeollanam-do Province. The island features fishing villages, hiking trails, beaches, evergreen forests as well as several historic buildings and gardens. Furthermore, nearby attractions include Nohwado Island, which is connected to Bogildo by bridge, and Suando Island. Surrounded by blue sea, Bogildo is considered the gem of all islands in this area. Island History The first people to set foot on Bogildo Island are Confucian scholars during the Joseon Dynasty (1392-1910). The relics of two such men, 17th century poet Yun Seon-do and politician Uam Song Si-yeol, still remain on the island. Yun had been on his way to Jeju Island when he stopped on Bogildo, and was so taken aback by its beauty that he ended up living on the island. He built and resided in the Buyongdong gardens, which have been well-preserved to this day. Uam Song had also been on his way to Jeju Island, when the boat stopped on Bogildo. Here, Uam Song carved a famous poem into a rock, which can still be seen today.
