[2025 Hadong-gun Attraction] Travel Guide for Hwagaejangteo Market (Updated May)

As everyone knows, Hwagae Market is one of the places that served as the background for the song by Jo Yeong-nam, “Hwagae Market that crosses Jeolla-do and Gyeongsang-do~~” :) That’s probably why there is a statue of Jo Yeong-nam at the entrance to Hwagae Market, and because peddlers used to bring goods and sell them here, there is also a statue of a peddler. Also, Okju Inn, which served as the background for Kim Dong-ri’s novel “Yeokma,” is said to be located here, so it would be nice to see it together when you visit Hwagae Market. (I couldn’t find it and saw it ㅠㅠ) Also, since this place is located at a place that crosses Jeolla-do and Gyeongsang-do, just like the song about Hwagae Market, it is a great place for shopping because products from both Gyeongsang-do and Jeolla-do are gathered here. If you want Jeolla-do! Gyeongsang-do! Products!, it would be a good idea to visit Hwagae Market. They say that even Mt. Geumgang is better after a meal, so we went all the way to Hadong, so we had the famous Jaecheopguk set meal in Hadong~~~~ #Jaecheopguk #Hadong #Hadong travel #tourist attraction #Hwagae Market #Jo Yeong-nam #places to visit in Hadong #recommended Hadong travel destinations #domestic travel

While enjoying the vibes and atmosphere shopping at the traditional marketplace, the fun should also be available for savouring authentic marketplace food as well. This restaurant located in the marketplace serves traditional Sanchae Bibimbap (mountain vegetables mixed rice) and other simple dishes such as scallion pancake, fried seafood etc. The taste of the bibimbap is very authentic where daily fresh greens were added in the rice, mixed with chilli sauce and sesame oil. We added a pancake to enhance the variety of our meal, and it is very tasty too. It is indeed a marvelous experience to shop and dine the traditional way. #celebratewithtrip #tripblazers

At the mountain foot of Jirisan near Hadong valley, lies a petite yet vibrate marketplace. This marketplace was established several hundred years ago during Joseon dynasty for merchants around the region to gather and sell/trade their goods as transportation is very inconvenient at the olden days. Today, it remained vibrant especially during weekend where people around the region and city area escape for a weekend getaway to visit and grab some high quality goods especially mushrooms, herbs and persimmons. There are also marketplace restaurants serving traditional food like bibimbap, dcallion pancake, beef soup with rice, raw freshwater fish etc. A truly great experience to visit and shop the traditional way. #fallingforfall #tripblazers

#Domestic travel This is Hwagae Market located in Hadong-gun, Gyeongnam!! I think everyone is having a hard time deciding where to go when traveling domestically. Hwagae Market was great because there were a lot of things to see and it felt like the old days. Also, you can buy things that are being sold here and there, so it was even more fun to look around. There are also places to take pictures, so if you take pictures next to them, you can make even better memories. If you are going to this area, it would be a good travel course to stop by Hwagae Market and take a look. I recommend it!!😆😆 It seems like a good travel destination to go with your family!! #Travel plan #Domestic travel destination recommendation #Domestic travel destination #Let's go on a trip #Travel course #Travel course recommendation #Travel

If you're chasing cherry blossoms in Korea but want to escape the usual tourist-packed spots, Hwagae is your dream spring getaway. Tucked away between Hadong in Gyeongsangnam-do and Gurye in Jeollanam-do, this quiet little town turns into a fairytale during cherry blossom season — and it's still beautifully under the radar. The main highlight? The Hwagae Cherry Blossom Road, also known as the “10-ri Cherry Blossom Road” or “Wedding Road.” For over 6 kilometers, the road is completely lined with cherry trees, forming a breathtaking tunnel of soft pink petals. Walking here feels like stepping into a painting — petals falling gently, the Seomjin River flowing nearby, and the scent of blossoms in the air. #aprilblooms #HwagaeCherryBlossoms #HiddenSpringGems #SlowTravelKorea #CherryBlossomTunnel #SpringInKorea

#AustraliaFlightEvent I went to Hwagae Market for the first time, and was surprised because it was bigger than I thought. Compared to its fame, there weren't many people around. If you go during the cherry blossom season, the cherry blossom festival is also big, so I recommend going! There are many good restaurants, and the market is big and lively, so it's fun Hwagae Market Cherry Blossom Festival Gyeongnam Hadong-gun Hwagae-myeon Ssanggye-ro 71-14 Festival #Domestic Travel

#JapanFlightEvent #KoreaTravel Every spring, beautiful flower trees bloom in Hwagaecheon near Hwagae Market in Hadong-gun, Gyeongsangnam-do. Cherry blossoms and plum blossoms are especially beautiful, so I recommend you visit if you want to see the flowers. Location: Top-ri, Hwagae-myeon, Hadong-gun, Gyeongsangnam-do

📍Address: Tap-ri, Hwagae-myeon, Hadong-gun, Gyeongnam ☎️Phone: 055-883-5722 🚘Parking: Parking lot available 🎵I visited Hwagae Market along the Seomjin River, which crosses Jeolla-do and Gyeongsang-do! Just like the famous lyrics of Cho Young-nam's song, Hwagae Market is located by the Seomjin River! Although it was a smaller traditional market than I expected, the friendly merchants and seasonal specialties made it worth a visit if you're traveling to Hadong!

😋Let's eat this instead of noodles when you come to Hadong!! It's a restaurant inside Hwagae Market! I visited this restaurant during the cherry blossom season because I was curious about it after visiting Hwagae Market 3 times! The line was huge from the entrance. I waited in line, but luckily I got in within 10 minutes!! I didn't want to eat noodles when I came to Hadong, so I ordered a menu that you can only eat here! The side dishes were different for each menu. We ordered the regular three-color pot rice, jaecheop pot rice, and fried food. We were shocked to see that jaecheop soup, soybean paste stew, and crab stew, as well as 8 kinds of vegetables, were served!! I also ordered a mixed fried food small dish, and the portion was huge! The vegetable tempura was delicious, and it was the first time I ate fried icefish in my life, and it was delicious! Among them, the fried silverfish was really delicious! I took the fried food to go and ate it with beer at my lodging because I was eating the side dishes. You absolutely have to try the fried food, the best, the best!!! If you like vegetables, I recommend the set meal. There are a lot of vegetables, so it's very delicious,,,🫶🏻 ▪️Jangteo Gukbap ▫️755-1 Tap-ri, Hwagae-myeon, Hadong-gun, Gyeongnam ▫️Opening hours: 8:00~19:00 every day ▫️Closed on Wednesdays ▫️No parking lot.

#CherryBlossomTravel #HadongTravel 🌸 Hadong, Gyeongnam, one of the hottest cherry blossom spots in Korea Not only the 10-ri Cherry Blossom Road and Hwagae Market, but also all the nearby places were filled with cherry blossoms, so it was so pretty 💗 They say it's the most beautiful place for cherry blossom riding along the Nakdong River, so if you're a rider, you should definitely go there 🚲 (It's a famous driving spot, but there are so many cars during the day that it's really crowded~) 📍Hadong 10-ri Cherry Blossom Road | 142 Hwagae-ro, Hwagae-myeon, Hadong-gun, Gyeongnam #CherryBlossom2024 #DomesticCherryBlossomTravel

#Domestic travel #Hadong travel I went to Hwagae Market after a really long time Maybe because it was the first day of the new year, it felt like it was the time when there were a lot of tourists and it was lively, so as someone who has been to Hadong often and enjoyed it for a long time, it was a good day for no reason. As expected, the various herbal medicine stores and food spots occupying the entrance to Hwagae Market seemed to be more active than before. 🧡 It felt like an old market that crossed Jeolla-do and Gyeongsang-do, so I thought it was still a Hadong travel course. 🥹 If there are people who haven't been there yet, I hope you have a fun time here eating Jaecheopguk and looking at Hadong specialties. 🧡 - - 🎈Hwagae Market Hwagae-myeon, Hadong-gun, Gyeongnam
