Must things to do in Sokcho city in Gangwon-do, Korea(외국인이 좋아하는 속초 관광지)





Sokcho is a city in Gangwon Province, South Korea. It is located in the far northeast of Gangwon. The city is a major tourist hub, and a popular gateway to nearby Seoraksan national park. Upon the division of the Korean peninsula into two countries following World War II, Sokcho was on the North Korean side of the border, but since the Korean War armistice (1953), it has been a part of South Korea.

Sokcho used to have its own airport, linking the city to Seoul. Currently, the city is served by the Yangyang International Airport.
The opening of KTX Kyung Kang line has made it convenient for travelers to visit Gangwon-Do province which is only an 86-minute train ride that starts from Seoul and tons of attractions.

Mt. Seoraksan National Park
When granite rocks of Seorak is seen from a long distance, it reminds of snow so people call it “Seorak (Snow Rock).” Seoraksan has different atmosphere for every season. Remaining snow and tender green of Spring; thick forest in Summer; burning red maple trees in Autumn; and blossom of white snow flowers in Winter… No matter how many times you look at Seoraksan, it is always beautiful and miraculous. Since its dedication as the Korea’s first Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO, Seoraksan is a world-famous mountain that will leap every visitor’s heart.
Seoraksan Cable Car
Cable Car takes you to the 670m high Gwongeumseong Fortress in just 5 minutes. As you move up away from the ground, you can enjoy the beauty of the Seorak, the Oeseorak ranges, and the East Sea on top of the Gwongeumseong Fortress.

Soft Tofu
There are soft tofu villages around Cheoksan Hot Spring and Pea Flower Village. Specialty is soft tofu using seawater as brine. Here, you can taste famous soft tofu and Hwangtae dishes.

Abai Village
Abai Village is made by refugees of the Korean War, who came to south side of Korea and never returned home. As time passed by, people from other areas have settled down too, but 60% of residents are still from Hamgyeong Province. Now, its official name is called Cheongho-dong, but still they call it Abai Village, which means grandfather in Hamgyeong dialect. This place is also famous for filming popular Korean drama 'Autumn in my Heart, and its famous Gaetbae is still operating to attract Japanese and Taiwanese tourists. Recently, it gained more popularity and attracting more visitors due to filming popular television show, 2 days and 1 night. '

Sokcho Tourist&Fishery Market
Sokcho Tourist & Fishery Market is one of the most recognized traditional market nationwide. The market is located in the center of the city alongside two markets, and supplies fresh vegetables throughout the year, as well as lots of eateries, from fresh sashimi of the underground Sashimi Center, dakgangjeong chicken bites of the Dakjeon Alley, salted seafood of Jeotgal Alley, sundae (Korean blood pudding) soup, seed pancakes, vegetable and seaweed chips, and pancakes, attracting visitors with its noisy and unique charm.

Sashimi Town
As the famous home of live fish and sashimi, every harbor in Sokcho has their own sashimi town. Joongang-dong sashimi town is still maintaining its 70s atmosphere as a fishing village and friendly hospitality of the time. Their old signage tells us how long they have been here and this place is the best-recommended sashimi place by Sokcho natives. Daepo Harbor attracts many visitors from far away places with its fresh flatfish, fluke and yellow tail.

Sokcho City(속초), South Korea: Popular tourist destinations in Gangwon Province

Welcome to KoreaRoadTour channel on YouTube!

👣 Location -

👉 About Sokcho-si (속초시)
Sokcho(Korean pronunciation: [sok̚.tɕʰo]) is an ideal location for vacationing, where Koreans flock to immediately as summer approaches. The destination is located on the east coast of the Korean Peninsula and occupies a large portion of Gangwon-do, where people come to enjoy sunbathing on long golden beaches as they gaze over the East Sea’s horizon.
Besides relaxing in the shade of the many pine trees, Sokcho is also famous for its food. Before heading out for water sports, make sure to fill yourself up with some various delectable seafood morsels you can only find at Sokcho Tourist & Fishery Market. Various delights found at dozens of food stalls, carts, and street vendors are addictively delicious and will cause you to come back for more.

° Places to visit in Sokcho-si (속초 가볼만한 곳)
╰ Sokcho Tourist & Fishery Market (속초 관광 수산시장)
Sockho’s traditional market is full of things to see, buy, and eat. Formed in 1953 as the Sokcho Tourist & Fishery Market, it was included on the Korea Tourism Organization’s list of “Best Traditional Markets for Foreign Tourists” last year. From fresh fishes caught off the coast in the Donghae Sea (East Sea) to dried fish and various vegetables, you can find fun in just looking around and watching the fishmongers bargaining with local market-goers. The best part is that it allows you to really taste and experience the true folk atmosphere of Korea.

╰ Seoraksan National Park (설악산 국립공원)
The area of Sokcho includes what is considered to be the most beautiful mountain in Korea, Seoraksan Mountain. Its natural sights are so beautiful that the mountain was designated a natural monument preservation area in 1965. Although the slopes are very steep, many professional and amateur climbers come to test their ability throughout all the seasons.

╰ Seorak Waterpia (설악 워터피아)
Seorak Waterpia is one of Korea's largest theme parks, offering a wide variety of outdoor leisure activities and hot spring facilities. Facilities at this waterpark include a spa, a wave pool, a stream pool where you can follow the current of the water, as well as exciting waterslides.
But what makes Seorak Waterpia special is the fact that they only use pure mineral water originating from Cheoksan Mountain, and is maintained at a temperature of 49℃.
