강릉시

Gangneung offers more than the East Sea coast: lakeside walks, old hanok houses and the stories of historical figures, beachside coffee culture, and the railway and sunrise imagery of Jeongdongjin. Even the same sea leaves different memories at Gyeongpo, Anmok and Jeongdongjin.

• Contrasting lake and sea views at Gyeongpo Lake and Beach
• Gangneung’s history and hanok culture around Jumunjin Port and Seongyojang
• Coastal experiences with their own stories, from Anmok coffee to Jeongdongjin sunrise

Highlights

Gyeongpo Lake, Gyeongpodae and Gyeongpo Beach

Enjoy a calm lake and the East Sea’s broad horizon within the same area. The quiet of a lakeside walk flows into the openness of the beach, creating more varied memories than a visit to the sea alone.

Jeongdongjin

An iconic Gangneung coastal setting where the station, sea and sunrise meet. Waiting for a scene—the early horizon or railway beside the water—can itself become the purpose of the trip.
