Gwangju morning day trip course

#Travel itinerary ๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡ทI've already heard that there's nothing special to see in Gwangju except for 5.18...! But I had a chance to visit Gwangju for the first time, so I went there for a while. ๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡ทPlease note that I only walked around this area because it was near the Asia Culture Center Stationใ…Žใ…Ž ๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡ทThe first destination was the 5.18 Democracy Archives. It opens at 9 o'clock, so I went there almost on time, and I was the second person to enter. The admission fee is free, so you can come and go freely, and the materials and facts about 5.18 were displayed in more detail than I thought, so my heart ached the whole time I was looking at them. The exhibitions are connected on each floor, and if you look around everything carefully, it takes about 1~2 hours! ๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡ทThe Asia Culture Center is just a short walk from the Democracy Archives! There are always new exhibitions here, but when I went, it was a photo exhibitionใ…Žใ…Ž It's good for a quick look, and the Culture Center building and interior itself are also good to look around, so I recommend it for your route! ๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡ท On the way to eat, there was something like BTS J-Hope Street(?), so I just took a picture as a souvenirใ…‹ใ…‹ใ…‹ใ…‹ ๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡ท When you think of Daejeon, you think of Seongsimdang, and when you think of Gwangju, you think of Gungjeong Bakery! Did you know that Gungjeong Bakery is the originator of fried soboro??! The breads at Gungjeong Bakery are similar in price to Seongsimdang and have a variety of types! If you're curious about bakeries in Gwangju with a long tradition, I definitely recommend visitingใ…Žใ…Ž All the bread I bought was delicious:) ๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡ท If you do this, you can tour Gwangju for about 4 hours, so I secretly recommend it as a short travel courseใ…Žใ…Ž
