Ilpumgungye in Hwaseong With prices being so high these days, I find myself often looking for all-you-can-eat places!

#OctoberTravelSupportEvent #100TravelStyles #ConqueringRestaurants The hottest food these days, Dubai Chocolate! If there's anyone who hasn't tried it yet, I recommend you try it since the JJ Dessert store opened at Lotte Department Store Dongtan Branch. The unique texture of Dubai Chocolate stimulates your appetite and even if you eat just one piece, your sugar will be charged, so I recommend you try it with coffee on a lazy afternoon. 🌟 The new product, Chestnut Tiramisu, is also delicious!

#Chuseok #100TravelStyles Chuseok in Korea is a custom of holding ancestral rites. That's why shopping before Chuseok becomes more careful.

#Domestic travel This is a Hwaseong Hanok Cafe with a well-maintained garden. The greenhouse area is very hot, and the outdoor tables are perfect for enjoying these days. If you feel hot easily, I recommend using the indoor area. Aah was okay, and everyone says the mugwort cream latte is delicious, but I personally like the mugwort flavor to be strong, so I wanted it to be less sweet and have a stronger mugwort flavor. However, the garden is pretty, so I want to go again on a nice day. ✔Menu price Mugwort latte 7,500 won Cream latte 7,500 won ⏰Business hours 11:00 - 20:00 Closed (every Monday) 📍Hwarimwon 242 Samhwa-gil, Bibong-myeon, Hwaseong-si, Gyeonggi-do

#Domestic travel This island, named Gukhwado because it is full of chrysanthemums in the fall, is a great place to visit for a day trip from the metropolitan area or Chungcheong region. 🚢10 minutes from Dangjin Janggo Port, 40 minutes from Hwaseong Gungpyeong Port! Gukhwado is an island that is administratively called Hwaseong, but it takes about 10 minutes by boat from Dangjin Janggo Port and about 40 minutes from Hwaseong Gungpyeong Port. The time it takes to arrive at the port varies depending on where you are, so calculate the boat time and travel time and use the boat from the port that is convenient for you! 🕰️First boat from Janggo Port: 08:00 Last boat: 18:00 (summer) Based on the first boat at 8:00, there are boats every two hours. If you purchase a ticket at Janggo Port, you will be issued a round-trip ticket, so make sure to keep the ticket with you! 🚘The operation of the ferry is flexible! Gukhwado is not a very big island that you can see everything in an hour or two, so you can park your car at Janggo Port and go, but if you really have to drive in, you can take the ferry that operates once or twice a day. However, the ferry operation is very flexible 🥺 🍚There are only a few restaurants on Gukhwado! There are only a few restaurants on the island because it is an island where water supply permits are not easily issued. Reviews are very mixed, so I recommend staying one night on the island and eating at your accommodation or eating near Janggo Port and going back and forth! 🏕️It is a backpacking mecca. Gukhwado is a backpacking mecca because the ocean and sunset are so pretty that you will regret not staying one night! The last ferry is at 6 o'clock, so it is hard to see the sunset on a day trip, so I want to go backpacking when the weather gets a little cooler. 1️⃣2️⃣ Sunset, Maebak Island This is an observatory that you can see when you walk along the Gukhwado perimeter road. The island you see here is Maebak Island, and when the tide goes out, you can walk to Maebak Island. 3️⃣ Sea Pension They also operate accommodations, and they also operate a light shop and restaurant on the Gukhwado perimeter road. I was able to have a cup of convenience store coffee while looking at the ocean in Gukhwado, where cafes are rare. 4️⃣ Gukhwado Lighthouse The first thing that greets you when you enter Gukhwado is the yellow chrysanthemum-colored lighthouse, the symbol of Gukhwado! 5️⃣6️⃣ Gukhwado Beach It's great for swimming, but they say it's a famous sunset spot. When they arrived, everyone was in full gear, so I wondered what was going on, but they were fully prepared to dig up a ton of clams... 7️⃣Seommaeul House Coffee As mentioned above, the only cafe in Gukhwado, where cafes are rare! It's not just an ordinary cafe, but a Vietnamese cafe run by a real Vietnamese person. It's located at the beginning of the trail and is close to the port, so it's a good place to stop by. 8️⃣Gukhwado Photo Zone This is a photo zone with the shape of the chrysanthemum, the symbol of Gukhwado. In addition to this, there are many other fun photo zones, such as the Stairway to Heaven. Gukhwado is a great place to stay overnight and enjoy the sunset and swimming, but it's also a great place to do light trekking like we did. When the chrysanthemums bloom in the fall, come and visit Gukhwado Island, which is even prettier🏝️💚

🤎 286 Sejaro, Jeongnam-myeon, Hwaseong-si, Gyeonggi-do, Lavidol Hotel Lobby Floor 2 🤎 11:00-20:00 🤎 No holidays It's a great place near Seoul for taking photos. Although it's a hotel lounge café, the coffee prices are very affordable for a hotel lounge, and it feels like being in Europe. 🩷 It's recommended for dates, but since the hotel is also operated together, it's also recommended for a nearby family trip. 🩵🩷

#Emotional Cafe 'Good Beans Coffee Signature' in Hwaseong, a modern interior that combines the feel of a hanok 📍Location: 1454 Beodeul-ro, Paltan-myeon, Hwaseong-si, Gyeonggi-do There is a parking lot right in front of the cafe, so you can park comfortably. Parents with children must actively care for their children in the Care Kids Zone. Brunch ordering hours are 11-17, and there is a set menu for one person, so you can order a reasonable menu. Police officers, firefighters, and soldiers can get up to 50% discount, and you can even get a free refill of Americano when you write a review. As expected of a large cafe, there were many 4-person tables, and the atmosphere was warm and quiet, so it was nice to feel relaxed while having a cup of coffee. The French toast was also moderately sweet, so it went well with the coffee! I recommend this place where you can enjoy a hanok cafe in Hwaseong with a warm atmosphere!
