Relaxing Stroll Around Jeonju Hanok Village in a Late Summer Day

It’s still warm in September and the coronavirus is making everyone nervous. Today I’ll introduce some landmarks in Jeonju Hanok Village for late summer strolls, laid-back style.

Cheongyeonru Pavilion

Cheongyeonru is a big pavilion built in the middle of Namchungyo Bridge, linking the Hanok Village and Seohak Art Village.

Inside the pavilion, you can cool down with the breeze blowing over Jeonjuchun River. Also, the view from right above the river is spectacular. The night view of the pavilion is also popular among the locals.

Jeonjuchun River Trail

You may have spotted people riding bikes along the river. The Jeonjuchun River trail is great for both bike riding and walking.

In summer, the trail offers the lush green, cool breeze, and the pleasant sound of river flowing.

Hanbyeokdang Pavilion

Hanbyukdang is a pavilion built in early Joseon Dynasty (1392-1897). Surrounded in lush greens, the pavilion is overlooking the river.

The view from Hanbyukdang is like an old Korean landscape painting. It’s surprising that such a serene place exists close to the bustling city center. If you feel worn out from the everyday life during this time of the coronavirus, I prescribe a slow, relaxing stroll around Jeonju Hanok Village!
