Gokjeongjae House
Jeollanam-do(Gurye-gun)

Gokjeonjae is built in the architectural style used by wealthy rural families found in the Yeongnam and Honam regions during the late Joseon period. In terms of the house's structure, the Munganchae (servants' quarters), Sarangchae (men's quarters) and Anchae (women's quarters) are arranged in a straight line, and surrounded by a 2.5m-high cobblestone wall based on the concept of a gold ring. Due to the academic value of the unique architectural techniques used in building it, the guest house has been designated as a local cultural heritage. The exterior maintains the traditional hanok's style while the interior is equipped with modern conveniences. One room can accommodate six to eight people, suitable for families. The red clay Ondol (traditional Korean floor heating system) is similar to a sauna as the floor is heated with firewood.
