Charming Hanok Cafe 'Hoyang Holim' in Yangnim-dong

I visited the charming Hanok cafe 'Hoyang Holim' in Yangnim-dong. This Hanok cafe in the city center has high ceilings and large windows, giving it a very open and beautiful atmosphere. The seating is available in both table and floor styles, and there are benches in the yard. They offer freshly roasted coffee every day and also sell coffee beans. The cafe offers a variety of fusion traditional desserts such as Gaeseong Juak, Hangari Bingsu, and Injeolmi Waffles. I highly recommend Hoyang Holim Hanok Cafe for its diverse fusion desserts and delicious drinks. Address: 4 Uwolsoon-gil, Nam-gu, Gwangju, 1st floor Open daily from 11:00 to 21:00 High chairs available, pets allowed

A quaint and sentimental space, "Dopi Cafe" 💕

Cafe Dopi located in Dong-gu, Gwangju is a hot spot in the city. It's so popular that there's no seat available on weekends, but there were still quite a few people during weekday afternoons. The interior design is vintage yet modern, making it a perfect spot for taking Instagram-worthy photos. Their special menu item is the donut, and although I wanted to try all the different flavors, I only picked two since I came after lunch. The taste was beyond my expectations, especially when paired with coffee. If you have a sweet tooth, you'll definitely be satisfied with their desserts. ⏰️11:00-22:00 🚗Parking on the narrow street is required. 🔍238 Baekseo-ro, Dong-gu, Gwangju #ScenicCafe #CafeDopi
