That is the Gangneung Ho-kang-seu restaurant Beach-cruise!!🛳 The Sun Cruise is in the old building, and the place where you can use the sea view terrace and indoor spa is in the new building of Beach Cruise, so please refer to it when making a reservation😊 If you sit on the terrace and look at the Jeongdongjin sea, you will naturally be healed😭 Since you came to Jeongdongjin, you cannot miss the sunrise, and you can see it from the observatory in the hotel, so I recommend it even more💕💕

If you stay at Beach Cruise, you can visit Jeongdongjin Sculpture Park for free. I really wanted to go there because I was obsessed with the Golden Goddess Statue, but it was even prettier in person. The round photo zone is pretty, and the view from the glass observatory where you can see the emerald Gangneung Sea at a glance is what can I say! The model of the Sun Cruise ship is also a great spot, so I recommend it when you travel to Jeongdongjin💙 - - 📍Gangneung Jeongdongjin Sculpture Park 🧭950-39 Heonhwa-ro, Gangdong-myeon, Gangneung-si 🎫Free admission for guests/Adults 5,000, Children (senior citizens) 3,000 ✔️5,000 won discount when using the Sky Lounge ℹ️It's bigger than I thought, so I have to go to Beach Cruise and see everything! #GangneungTravel#Jeongdongjin#SunCruiseHotel

#Overseas Travel #Korea Travel #Korea Jeongdongjin is a small fishing village located in Gangneung, Gangwon Province.

It takes about 30 minutes and since most of it is flat along the coast It is not a very difficult course! I recommend riding a rail bike and enjoying the cool East Sea scenery to your heart's content! #HotPlace #Jeongdongjin #JeongdongjinRailBike

Cafe Sun is a place where you can enjoy a cup of warm tea or coffee while looking out over the Jeongdongjin sea. It opens at 5 AM, so you can wait for the sunrise! I went on a trip to Gangneung with a friend and headed to this cafe after seeing the Jeongdongjin sunrise. The menu is varied and the inside of the cafe is very cozy. It doesn't feel cramped because it's a duplex! I loved the view of Jeongdongjin Station and the Jeongdongjin sea right outside the window. #PleaseWinter #CafeRecommendation #OceanViewCafe #OceanView #JeongdongjinTravel #JeongdongjinStation #JeongdongjinSea #CafeWithAGoodView

I think I know why Jeongdongjin is a sunrise spot Why do you go to Jeongdongjin from the early morning of January 1st to see the sunrise..! It was so pretty and beautiful even though it wasn't a special day Jeongdongjin Station before the sun rises is also so pretty,, If you're going to Gangneung or Jeongdongjin, you should definitely go!! Even if you're tired in the morning, just endure it a little and go out~!~! #JeongdongjinStation #JeongdongjinTravel #SunriseSpot #JeongdongjinSea #GangneungTravel #Sunrise #SunriseTravel

This is a cafe I visited in the morning after watching the sunrise in Jeongdongjin. It seems to be a well-known cafe because it is a small and pretty cafe! The cafe's signature menus are Haru Latte and Yulmu-di, and I ordered Yulmu-di. Yulmu-di is a cereal + Yulmu-di smoothie that is sweet and rich and really delicious :) I think the price is also cheap at 5,500 won~ I recommend you visit this cafe if you travel to Jeongdongjin! #JeongdongjinStation #JeongdongjinTravel #SunrisePlace #CafeRecommendation #CafeHotPlace #Jeongdongjin

✔️Address: Jeongdongjin-ri, Gangdong-myeon, Gangneung-si, Gangwon-do ✔️Getting there: It takes about an hour by KTX from Seoul Station or Cheongnyangni Station!

The sea in Gangneung seems to have a really colorful charm ㅎㅎ It's like a refreshing feeling ㅎㅎ The blue sea always seems to make me feel good❤️❤️ #GangneungTravel #PlacesToGoInGangneung #Beach #FallTravel #Sea #SeaLifeShot #GangneungHotPlaces #WithNature#CapturingSummer

Address: Anbo Hiking Trail, Gangneung-si, Gangwon-do Atmosphere/Facilities: Top Hiking Trail in Gangneung Special Reason: Walking along the hiking trail with the sunset... Average Price per Person: Free Rating: ●●●●● -------- If you go down a little further from Jeongdongjin in the south of Gangneung, you will come across Anbo Hiking Trail. This was one of the areas that decorated the end of the bicycle trip, but if you pass this point, you will reach Donghae-si, so you can think of it as the southern end of Gangneung. Since I rode my bike all night, I took a quick break at Jeongdongjin Port to take a break. My body and mind were tired from the night ride, so I fell asleep without realizing it. How many hours had passed? It was already around 3pm... I hurriedly packed my bags and headed to Anbo Hiking Trail. As the name suggests, Anbo Hiking Trail used to be used for coastal inspections by the military, but it is now open to tourists and used as a hiking trail. The area is hilly and not very high, so you can see the entire East Coast after hiking for 1-2 hours. It is also easy for beginners to hike, so many tourists visit. You can see the sunset here, but since we started late, the sun began to set slowly at 6 PM. I was getting impatient. My steps got faster and I started to run uphill, not hiking. My heart was about to burst and my calves were aching. But I couldn't give up on the sunset. Around 6:50-7 PM, the sunset was clear and a great red flame appeared before us. It was so painful that my eyes hurt. The world looked red. Even the Gangneung city in the distance became a sea of ​​fire. It was worth the effort to climb up. This is how the 3-hour Anbo hiking trail ended, and now we finished our bike trip by going to Donghae City. #Life travel destination #Jeongdongjin travel #Hiking travel #Hiking course #Sunset restaurant #Sunset viewing #Emotional #Emotional photo #Rainy day travel #Sunshine restaurant #With nature #Summer #Safe travel

Jeongdongjin Beach, which can be reached in about 2 hours and 10 minutes by KTX from Seoul The KTX, which connects Seoul and Jeongdongjin in 2 hours, runs 4 times a day on weekdays (7 times a day on weekends), making it easier to get to Jeongdongjin There are many places to visit near the beach, such as Jeongdongjin Rail Bike, Haslla Art World, Sun Cruise Resort, Jeongdongjin Time Museum, Jeongdong Simgok Sea Fan Road, etc. #OceanViewRestaurants #Beach #WithDogs #JeongdongjinBeach #Jeongdongjin

Have you ever tried a 2-day, 1-night trip? I took a train to Jeongdongjin with a friend in December of the year after the college entrance exam. It was a trip without a plan, so my body was tired, but the series of unexpected events left a lasting impression on me, making it a very good memory. I'd like to introduce you to my memories from that time :) I took the last train and arrived at Jeongdongjin at dawn, and I walked around and looked around, from fireworks in front of the sea to stargazing, watching the sea, and the sunrise. I even ate delicious food along with the sunrise. You can go to Jeongdongjin on a day trip, but it's a little tight on time. If you're feeling a little loose and tired to stay one night, why not try a 2-day, 1-night trip? 🤩🥸 . . . #Gangwon-do travel #Gangneung travel #Jeongdongjin station #train #2-day, 1-night trip #good atmosphere #sea #memorable trip #travel sickness #safe travel

#trippal #Jeongdongsimgokbadabuchaegil Takes 2 hours round trip Different from Jeju's sea, the East Sea has its charm There is charm everywhere as you walk Artificial waterfall The meeting of mountains and sea It was a healing course.

#summervacay Jeongdongjin truly lives up to its reputation as an incredibly beautiful spot, especially when the weather is clear and the sea glistens! Your untouched photos must be absolutely stunning. It's the kind of place you can visit three times and still not tire of. Here's why Jeongdongjin is so captivating: Unbeatable Beauty & Easy Access Breathtaking Scenery: You mentioned the sea looks especially gorgeous when the weather is good, and it's clear you're captivated by its beauty. It's often called one of Korea's most picturesque coastal areas. Direct Beach Access: Getting there is super convenient! From Cheongnyangni Station (Seoul), a KTX train gets you to Jeongdongjin in less than two hours. Even better, you step right onto the beach upon arrival (Figure 1). You can even get great photos just hanging around the station! Things to Note & Extend Your Trip Public Transport: The main downside is that local public transportation isn't very developed, and sometimes it can be tough to find a taxi. Plan your movements accordingly, perhaps by walking or arranging transport in advance if you have specific destinations. Combine with Gangneung: If you have more time, consider taking the KTX just 15 minutes further to Gangneung. This allows you to easily explore two vibrant coastal cities in one day, which is perfectly doable! Gangneung offers more urban amenities, cafes, and beaches. Crucial Tip for Return: Always buy your return train ticket in advance! As you wisely pointed out, tickets can sell out, and you might find yourself unable to get back. Jeongdongjin offers that perfect blend of easy access to stunning natural beauty and a tranquil escape from city life. It's clear why it holds such a special place in your heart! #Jeongdongjin #SouthKorea #KoreaTravel #EastCoast #SeaView #CoastalEscape #Gangneung #KoreaSoloTravel #BeachLife #TravelTips #DiscoverKorea

Escaping the hustle and bustle of Seoul, I needed a place to catch my breath. My choice? Gangneung. With the vast embrace of the sea, the savory taste of Chodang, and the majestic presence of Seorak — every day felt like a healing experience. ⸻ 1️⃣ Embracing the Sea – Jeongdongjin Beach The first destination upon arriving in Gangneung was Jeongdongjin Beach. The sunlight gently descended, and the waves whispered in rhythmic harmony. Walking barefoot on the sandy shore, my tangled thoughts seemed to unravel effortlessly. I captured a few photos with the sea as the backdrop — moments of pure freedom. ⸻ 2️⃣ Chodang’s Delicacies – Soft Tofu and Corn After enjoying the sea, I headed to Chodang-dong. Famous for its Chodang soft tofu, the area has recently gained popularity for Chodang corn as well. • ✔️ The soft tofu was so rich and mild that it slid down easily even without rice. The clear broth, cooked without chili oil, was soothing to the stomach. • 🌽 Chodang corn was chewy and sweet, melting in the mouth. I brought some home and enjoyed it the next morning — just a quick microwave reheat brought back the freshly steamed taste! ⸻ 3️⃣ Embracing Seoraksan – A Stroll in the Small Park An hour’s drive from Gangneung, Seoraksan’s Small Park is a must-visit spot. Walking along the trail felt like a casual stroll, with sunlight filtering through the dense trees and the distant sound of birds adding to the serenity. Sitting at the entrance of Seoraksan, I let my mind wander, feeling a sense of clarity and peace. ⸻ 4️⃣ A Sweet Finale – Gelato Time On the way back, I stopped by a gelato shop near Anmok Beach. The creamy milk gelato, Chodang corn-flavored gelato, and slightly salty caramel gelato left a lasting impression. A bite of gelato while gazing at the sea — could there be a more perfect ending?

Gangneung is a travel destination where the sea, nature, tradition, and charm come together, making it an attractive spot even for travelers on foot. Here are 5 must-visit places in Gangneung! 😊🌊 1. Gyeongpo Beach & Gyeongpodae 🏖️ This iconic beach in Gangneung features a wide sandy shore and a stunning blue sea. Nearby, Gyeongpodae, a pavilion from the Joseon Dynasty, offers breathtaking views and is a must-see spot. 2. Anmok Beach Cafe Street ☕🌅 A street lined with cafes where you can enjoy coffee while gazing at the sea. Visiting during sunrise or sunset makes the scenery even more spectacular. 3. Jeongdongjin Beach & Badabuchaegil Trail 🌊🚶♀️ A coastal walking trail where you can experience the untouched beauty of the East Sea. Jeongdongjin Beach is also famous as a filming location for dramas and offers stunning sunrise views. 4. Ojukheon 🏯🍃 The birthplace of Shin Saimdang and Yi I, this historical site showcases the beauty of traditional Korean architecture. It offers different charms in every season. 5. Gangneung Central Market 🍢🛍️ A traditional market where you can find a variety of local delicacies and specialties.

A day in Jeongdongjin is not just an ordinary trip; it’s truly a moment of being ‘touched by the sea.’ The Sun Cruise Hotel, uniquely designed to resemble a real ship perched on a cliff, offers breathtaking views of the sea right outside your window. Open the window, and it feels as if the ocean is pouring in. At night, you can relax to the sound of waves, and in the morning, you can witness the magnificent sunrise over the sea right from your bed. I woke up early to catch the sunrise and took a walk along the coastal trail. The fresh air, the sound of the waves, and the tranquility were simply wonderful. The Beach Cruise area, located at a slightly lower and more relaxed spot, gives you a closer connection to the beach. It’s perfect for taking photos and leisurely strolls. Jeongdongjin Beach is quieter than expected, making it ideal for a peaceful walk while gazing at the sea. Sitting on the sandy shore and letting your mind wander, you’ll find yourself losing track of time and feeling completely rejuvenated. A sunrise over the sea, a cruise on a cliff, and a serene beach—this combination is enough to provide anyone with a restful escape. 📍 Sun Cruise Hotel, 950-39 Heonhwa-ro, Gangdong-myeon, Gangneung-si, Gangwon-do 📍 Jeongdongjin Beach, Jeongdongjin-ri, Gangneung-si, Gangwon-do

The Jeongdongjin Beach I visited yesterday truly had an exotic atmosphere. As soon as I arrived, the scenery unfolded before me, giving the impression of being at a foreign resort. The seawater was clear, the waves were gentle, and the horizon where the sky met the sea stretched endlessly, providing a healing experience just by looking at it. Above all, Jeongdongjin at sunset was truly magical. The color of the sea subtly changed with time, and simply watching it brought a sense of calmness. There weren't many people, making it a great place for a quiet walk or to relax while gazing at the sea. The surroundings of the beach were also well-maintained and clean. It was a place where you could fully feel the emotional impact of nature. If you love the sea and are looking for a quiet and beautiful landscape, Jeongdongjin Beach is a must-visit destination.

It cost around 7 us dollars. #ocean #pacific #koreanfood
