2025 Naju-Si Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in June)

This is a day trip course to Naju that you can take a day trip to. It's a little hot, but Naju in the summer has fragrant trees and colorful flowers! Check out the day trip course and head to Naju! 1️⃣Naju Station Historical Park : 26 Jukrim-gil, Naju-si, Jeollanam-do 〰️ The old Naju Station is a modern building that began operations in 1913 when the Honam Line opened. Unlike the stations of today, it's a cute building, so it's great for taking pictures! 2️⃣Nampa House : 13 Geumseong-gil, Naju-si, Jeollanam-do 〰️ This house, which has its current appearance in the early 20th century, is said to be a place with great historical significance because it shows the structure of a local upper-class house at the time and is well preserved. ✔️ If you visit in the summer, it's great for taking pictures on the wall with rhododendrons in bloom! 3️⃣Nampyeong Halmaejip : 143 Naju-ro, Naju-si, Jeollanam-do 〰️ When you think of Naju, you think of gomtang! A gomtang restaurant with 60 years of tradition, with a deep broth and refreshing radish kimchi 🍯If you go on the weekend, you'll have to wait until 3 PM at popular Hayanjip or Noanjip, so I recommend going to a different gomtang restaurant! 4️⃣Geumseonggwan : 8 Geumseonggwan-gil, Naju-si, Jeollanam-do 〰️ This is a symbolic historical site that shows how Naju played a central role as the leader of Honam, and it's really close to Gomtang Street, so be sure to stop by! 5️⃣Lightning-Struck Pine Tree : 13-8 Geumseonggwan-gil, Naju-si, Jeollanam-do 〰️ A pine tree that split in two after being struck by lightning in the 1980s. Naju people tied up pine trees and prayed for their survival, and they believed that seeing the miraculously revived pine trees would bring good luck. They say that if you hug the pine tree and make a wish, it will come true, so please visit! ✨️ 6️⃣3917Majung : 42-16 Hyanggyo-gil, Naju-si, Jeollanam-do 〰️ This is probably the hottest cafe in Naju... It also operates a stay and is a filming location for the drama 'I Know' :-) 7️⃣Najuhyanggyo : 38 Hyanggyo-gil, Naju-si, Jeollanam-do 〰️ It was founded in 1398 for secondary education and the enlightenment of local people in the Naju region. You can see a huge zinnia tree 🌺 8️⃣Hansuje : Gyeonghyeon-dong, Naju-si, Jeollanam-do 〰️ A great place to take a walk along the reservoir and enjoy the cool autumn breeze🍂 9️⃣Breeze : 11 Seonchang-gil, Naju-si, Jeollanam-do, 2nd floor 〰️ A cafe with a great view of Yeongsan River and forest! It's a 6-minute walk to Hwangpo Sailboat Pier, so it's good to visit together:) #SummerTravel #NajuTravel

#SeoulTravel A visit to the National Museum in Nago was a rich and entertaining cultural experience. The museum features an extensive collection of artifacts highlighting the history and culture of the region. I enjoyed wandering through the exhibits, which cover a variety of eras from prehistoric times to modern Korean civilization. The design of the museum was modern, making the exploration experience comfortable and easy. I particularly enjoyed the traditional ceramics section and the artwork reflecting ancient Korean culture. The staff were friendly and helpful, adding a welcoming touch to the visit. It is the perfect place for those who love history and culture.

🔸Space Dream ✔️Location: 558-314, Najuho-ro, Dado-myeon, Naju-si, Jeollanam-do Opened in August this year, Space Dream is a brand new exhibition. Located within Naju Jungheung Gold Spa, it offers ample parking space. With a space travel concept, it is unique and the composition and story are excellent, making the admission fee well worth it. It's a great indoor date course.

#Ho-kang-se #Naju-hotel #Naju-travel 📍 Naju, Bitgaram Hotel Naju Bitgaram Hotel was smooth from check-in to check-out! Since it is a large hotel in Naju, the overall service and facilities were satisfactory. I used a twin room, and the big window and clean bathroom were the parts I liked the most. The overall interior was in wood tones, creating a warm and cozy atmosphere, so I was able to sleep well. Since it is really close to Naju Station, it is a hotel recommended for backpackers. There are also convenience stores and restaurants nearby, so it was good as the last stop of the trip :)

#Emotional Accommodation #NajuTravel #NajuAccommodation 📍Naju, Majung 39-17 Majung 39-17 is a place where you can spend a day in a historical building with a feel of Hanok, Western-style house, and Japanese architecture. There is a cafe, so you can enjoy various Naju pear desserts. It is not far from Naju city center (you can walk there), and there are various historical sites nearby, so it was the best location for traveling. The rooms are clean and pretty, so they are good for taking pictures!

I came in winter… The ginkgo tree road is really beautiful ☺️☺️☺️

Yeongsan River, located in Muan and Naju, Jeollanam-do, is a place where you can enjoy a pleasant outing with its unique terrain! If you visit in the fall, you can also enjoy the fall foliage, so be sure to visit 😉🍁 📍 32-24 Isan-ri, Mongtan-myeon, Muan-gun, Jeollanam-do #Let's go on a trip

At the Naju park Bitgaram the night is good looking from the top in the building this place is close every Monday

Address: 6-1 Geumseonggwan-gil, Naju-si, Jeollanam-do Atmosphere/Facilities: Hayanjip, with over 100 years of history. This is a representative restaurant for Naju gomtang. It is characterized by being always crowded with many tourists, regardless of whether it is lunch or dinner. Key Point: Compared to Seoul, you can enjoy high-quality gomtang at a very low price. In addition, the boiled pork without any unpleasant odor is one of the most popular menus because it tastes very good. Hayanjip's gomtang is characterized by its very clear broth, but unlike its clear color, its taste is very deep and rich. If two people visit, ordering one boiled pork and one gomtang will fill you up. Average price per person: 9,000-18,000 won Rating: 5/5 #Best #Restaurant Tour #Vacation Trip

Any type of South Korean travel experience is fun. There are many places to visit and go on trips, but Naju has Jumong, a filming location in South Korea.

#themepark #skiadventure Well went there Monday but they are close so just taking picture outside 😔

#Observatory The parking lot is not large, so it was inconvenient, but the road to the observatory was full of hydrangeas, so it was very pretty. You can walk to the observatory, and when you go up, you can see Yeongsan River. It's a pretty place when the weather is clear.

#BakeryCafe This is Naju Cafe Biclash, where the bread is really delicious. I liked the variety of breads. The view from the cafe is also so nice that the pictures come out really pretty❤️

#DramaFilmingLocation Naju Forest Nature Research Institute is often used as a filming location for dramas and music videos. First of all, the parking lot is spacious, which is nice. The space is wide open, so it seems like a great place to take a walk.

Naju Bulhoesa Temple is a famous place where you can feel the quiet atmosphere of transitioning from fall to winter. Baekyangsa Temple is chosen as a famous temple in Jeollanam-do, but it is also chosen as one of the hidden places for fall foliage. The temple itself is a great place where you can heal just by walking around in harmony with the high sky and nature. I recommend Bulhoesa Temple where you can enjoy a simple walk!! #NajuTravel #Naju #WithNature #SoloTravel #YearEndTravel #Hanok #Temple #TempleTravel #Temple #WithNature #MustSeeHistoricalPlaces

This is Majung Cafe located in Naju, Jeollanam-do. It is a Hanok cafe with a long history. It is not far from Najuhyanggyo, so if you are looking for a place to rest, you will have to pass by here. Have a cup of iced Americano. #Summer #Gourmet Tour #Safe Travel #Cafe

Location: 2316-9 Yeongna-ro, Naju-si, Jeollanam-do, 1st floor, Ihwarim Overall score: ★★★☆☆ (Regrettably priced) This is a very excellent restaurant from the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety. It is located below the old city of Naju, and the road is quiet. When you enter the cafe from the road, you may wonder if you are in the right place, but once you enter, you will see a beautiful garden like a hidden fairy tale house. You can park in a large open space filled with gravel and enter the cafe through the back door. When you enter, it is on the 1.5th floor, so you can go down one flight of stairs and order. Coffee costs 7,000 won for basic coffee, and 4-5,000 won for bread. (Expensive) You have to find a seat and take it when the bell rings. Even though I visited at 11 am, there were only employees and no customers, so it was quiet. There are pine trees and poplars outside the huge windows. The weather was so hot that I couldn't walk around the garden ㅠ However, since there is a Korea Electric Power Corporation in Naju Bitgaram-dong, the transmission tower is over the vast view. That's a shame. The bread and coffee are above average. Pros of this cafe + Quiet (you can even hear the birds chirping) + Delicious bread and coffee + Comfortable chairs + Large parking space I'm not sure if I'd visit again.. I don't really like trees. #NajuCafe #Ihwarim #ArboretumCafe

Circle Table is a delightful brunch cafe located in Naju. Situated near Maehwaje, it boasts a beautiful view and plenty of open spaces nearby, making parking convenient!

Highly recommended dishes include: - Lasagna with carrot puree - Oven-baked chicken thigh with mashed potatoes The chicken thigh with mashed potatoes is especially tasty!

This place is designated as an excellent architectural asset. 📍Naju Modern House Address: 42-16 Hyanggyo-gil, Naju-si, Jeollanam-do Time: 11:00-21:00 This place is used as a cafe and cultural complex.

And it was also famous as a filming location in the drama. “I Know” The guest house that appeared was called Mokseowon. There is also a cafe here, and there were many drinks made with pears, a specialty of Naju, so there was a lot to eat!! If you travel to Naju, it would be good to visit this place and enjoy it. There are palm trees like Jeju Island, so there are many photo zones!!

If you're looking to escape the city and take a stroll through lush green forest paths, Naju Forest Research Institute is the perfect spot. The Metasequoia tree-lined road at the entrance is a must-visit for capturing stunning photos! You can also experience forest interpretation and various forest healing programs, making it a true haven for relaxation.
