Gangneung South Korea. History and Cultural Guide for Tourism. Gangneung is one of the largest coastal cities in Gangwon-do and the largest economic center in the Yeongdong region. It is located south of Yangyang and north of Donghae. The Taebaek Mountains, which rise up behind the city, help keep it a bit warmer than coastal cities in the west. And unlike in other parts of the country, the rainy season is in the fall, not the summer. It has no commercial port and not a lot of fishing off its coast. Due to its historical significance and its seaside location, it has become a tourist spot for vacationing Seoulites. Its appeal lies towards the sea, particularly near Gyeongpo, while its cultural hotspots well-preserved Joseon-era buildings in the unmissable Ojukheon and the 400-year-old shamanist Dano Festival are matched by quirky modern attractions, such as a museum lovingly dedicated to Thomas Edison and a North Korean submarine. With a decent bar scene, the town is a good place to linger for a few days if you’re looking for an experience that’s off the beaten track without being too small-town. Try to arrive in spring, when azaleas cover the town in gorgeous splashes of color. The city tree is the pine, found in abundance by Gyeongpo Beach.
