#Domestic travel #Gwangju travel #Places to visit in Gwangju 🔆Gwangju City Hall 📍111 Naebang-ro, Seo-gu, Gwangju An unmanned cafe on the first floor of Gwangju City Hall!! It's a resting space for citizens, so anyone can come in! There's a capsule coffee machine, so you can drink coffee, and there are outlets at each seat, so you can use your laptop. What I like most is that the spacious space doesn't feel stuffy. You can see the building garden through the large windows, and there are flowers blooming here and there. I think you'll be able to enjoy a wonderful view in May when the roses are in full bloom. There's a bar-style table by the window, and there's a chair with steps at the end. It's a space where you can place a cushion wherever you want and sit freely. There's also a honeycomb-shaped space on one side. You can also use the private space with 8 rooms.

#IndoorDate #GwangjuRestaurant #GalbitangRestaurant 🔆Ohhaengja 📍161-1 Gunbun-ro, Nam-gu, Gwangju 1st floor Nam-gu restaurant Ohhaengja had a very clean exterior. In fact, you know that when the exterior of the building is clean, you feel better when you go to the restaurant. The meaning of Ohhaengja It means "Let's be happy today too." The main dish is Wanggalbitang, and Wanggalbi noodles are also sold as a lunch special. The interior has 3 rooms. It would be good for a group visit. #Recommended as a Wolsan-dong meeting place I thought it was the end of galbitang and samgyetang, but there are also galbijeongol, galbijjim, yukhoe, chadol seafood ramen, gimbap, and nurungji. These are menus that are good for having a drink in the evening. Wanggalbitang has two large ribs. It's as big as your forearm. Ribs as big as a king. I always eat ribs in pieces, but I feel refreshed when I eat Wanggalbi. The meat is also very tender, so I If you just lift it a little with tongs, it will separate from the bone. Eating a hot galbitang meal made me feel full and healthy. It was the perfect food for a day with light rain.

In Japan, eel is eaten as kabayaki or shirayaki, but in Gwangju, Korea, freshly split eel is placed on the hot plate and barbecued as is⭐️ I was surprised when the whole eel was placed on the hot plate with a juicy 🔥, but the freshly grilled eel, which has not lost too much fat, is delicious with a crispy surface and soft inside😋 The gochujang, miso, and sesame oil are the accents✨ There are also a wide variety of side dishes, including "gejang" and "beondegi," a snack made from steamed and seasoned silkworm pupae. The price of eel is measured by gram, so it's a good idea to ask about the price at the beginning. It's near Daein Market and is open all day, so it's easy to stop by, and the staff were nice, so it was a good experience❤️ [Memories of a trip to Gwangju] 📍Location: 5-7 Jebong-ro 194beon-gil, Dong-gu, Gwangju, Korea 🕰️Opening hours: 10am-10pm 💰Price per person: W25000 #Gwangju #Korea trip #Korean food #BBQ #Memories of a trip abroad #100 travel styles

Located in Munheung-dong, Gwangju, this forest path is a popular spot for locals to visit during the summer to see the flowers.

The cafe offers a variety of fusion traditional desserts such as Gaeseong Juak, Hangari Bingsu, and Injeolmi Waffles.

#Emotional cafe #Gwangju cafe #Gwangju cafe recommendation #Yanglim-dong cafe 🔆Paseare 📍 77 Jejung-ro, Nam-gu, Gwangju, Honam Theological University Library 1st floor 📍11:30 - 21:00 (Closed every Wednesday) Yanglim-dong cafe Paseare, which is quite large to the point that it is impossible to capture the entire exterior at once, is located inside Honam Theological University The interior is arranged with sofa seats, multi-person table seats, and bar seats The right side of the counter has a view of Mt. Mudeung, so it is not too bright, which seems to enhance the atmosphere of the cafe The main viewing window, the view of the missionary residence You can feel another atmosphere as the sunlight pours down Personally, this place is a great place for Hwinangshi I ate it without expecting much, but it is the best Hwinangshi I have ever had The crispy outside Hwinangshi is definitely delicious The dessert was better than expected, and I like the interior that feels like an art gallery It was the emotional cafe Pasear that I heard about.

15-14 Jungang-ro 160beongil, Dong-gu, Gwangju 17:00 - 24:00 16:00 - 17:00 Break time First and third days of every month. Closed on Sundays 062-222-0788 I visited Bonga Ddeokgogi after 15 years, and the location has not changed, and I could still eat delicious meat. The price is still reasonable, so I could eat without any burden. I think you should definitely order the green onion stir-fried bibimbap. Ddeokgogi is the meat left after disassembling the meat, and it is said that it is so delicious that people ate it secretly. The meat is grilled in layers, so it takes a little time at the beginning, but it is still delicious when eaten with ssam and bibimbap, with no gamey smell and full of meat juice. #GwangjuRestaurant #Restaurant #CityTrip #GwangjuTravel #Couple #MeatRestaurant #KoreanFoodRestaurant

I tried the popular Tanghulu these days at the newly opened Daehantanghulu The Shop Yeomju branch in Yeomju-dong!! The size and type of fruit may vary depending on the season. In the spring, they sell cherry tomatoes and strawberries, in the summer, they sell Shine Muscat, blueberries, grapes, and cherries. Now, they sell strawberries, mixed Tanghulu, Shine Muscat, black safari, tangerines, blueberries, grapes, green grapes, and cherry tomatoes. I tried it for the first time, and the fruit itself was really fresh, and the sugar coating was thin, so when I took a bite, the juice spread out and it was sweet and sour, so it was delicious!
