This iconic road lined with gingko trees is renowned for its beauty and is a must-see spot for photography enthusiasts. Located in Chuncheon City, Gangwon Province, South Korea, it offers a picturesque view that captivates all who visit.
❄️❄️ Nami Island is famous for its golden gingko tree-lined roads, creating a romantic and breathtaking scenery. Fans of Korean dramas will especially enjoy the charm of this place 😍😍.
❄️❄️ During the autumn season, the gingko trees turn a vibrant golden yellow, offering a stunning visual treat. However, in this photo, we visited during winter (December 2025), when the snow had just started to fall. Although the snow wasn't thick yet, its soft, clean white blanket added a touch of winter beauty to the landscape.

The amount of coffee was so generous, it was so impressive! 😲
Usually, cafes with such stunning interiors and views tend to have small portions. But here, the portions were similar to a generous latte I'd make at home, which was so nice! ☕
Sitting by the window, quietly gazing at the ocean, and sipping a refreshing latte felt so refreshing. 🌊
It's been a while since I've seen a cafe that pays such attention to even the smallest details.😊

[Korea/Trip to Gangneung] Tastes of memories with my grandmother
#AbsolutelyFreeTrip
I discovered a cafe in Gangneung, a suburb of Seoul, Korea, that I definitely want to visit 💡🍨
It's called [Koma Sokuri]
They make and sell ice cream using the flavor (corn) that reminds the owner of his grandmother
It's a new sensation, and a shame!
They also have fresh caramel, which is rare in Korea!
The interior of the store retains an old-fashioned atmosphere, with tables such as the earthen floor, chabudai table, and sewing machine table that remind the owner of his grandmother. You can read the story of the grandmother in a picture book ✨📕Why not take a break in this retro and cute store?

Beautiful painting-Gangwon-do
#4月好去处2025 The natural scenery of Gangwon-do amazes me, especially in spring when the cherry blossoms and azaleas bloom in the mountains, forming a beautiful picture. I took a hiking trip and enjoyed the magnificent scenery along the mountain trails. The fresh air was refreshing. The local hot springs are also a highlight. Soaking in the steaming hot springs can instantly soothe your tired body and mind.
Ski Resorts in Gangwon-do
#AprilGoodDestinations2025
💞Recommendation reason: Gangwon-do has many ski resorts and becomes a paradise for ski enthusiasts in winter. The snow quality here is excellent and the facilities are complete, suitable for skiers of all levels. Besides skiing, you can also enjoy the relaxation of hot springs.
🗓️Itinerary: The best ski season in Gangwon-do, Seoul: usually from mid-November to mid-March of the following year. Based on the climate in previous years, the snowfall in December and January is relatively stable and abundant, so these two months are also the peak skiing season in South Korea.

Travel to Yangyang, Gangwon-do💙
#January travel support event
This is the Gangwon-do sea with a beautiful beach that can be seen in just 2 hours from Seoul. In Korea, many people travel to Gangwon-do to see the beautiful sea, and the place is Yangyang, which can be called a mecca for surfers. Yangyang has a surfer beach where you can have a good time, and there are many places to drink beer and shop around, so it is a domestic travel destination that I recommend. I recommend you go in the summer and enjoy surfing. #Gangwon-do travel #Yangyang travel #February travel support event
Korean food report program (Jang Keun-suk's appearance) Miso-making restaurant open for lunch

@#Korean homemade miso
@#Korean homemade tofu
This restaurant was featured in a famous Korean food review program, and serves wild vegetable namul, homemade miso, and homemade tofu.
Only open for lunch.
It takes about 2 hours to get there from Seoul using the highway, but since I went at the beginning of a holiday in Korea, it took 6 hours in heavy traffic.
The highway to the East Sea was very congested.
The jars for making the homemade miso were filled with miso made with love.
In the restaurant, you can eat wild vegetable namul and homemade tofu that were featured in the food review.
Edible dandelions and acacia flowers picked in the mountains were also used generously in the dishes.
The meat and fish were also very delicious.
The food was locally produced.
Jang Keun-suk ate freshly made tofu on a food review program with relish, and you can only get it at this restaurant.
If you go there outside of your Korean vacation, the highway is not crowded.
The manager who appeared on the program was very friendly and kind, and told us about the miso assortment that he gave to Jang Keun-suk during the program location shoot.
We bought that too.
The happiness of being able to eat delicious food in a place with great air and scenery🩷
The happiness of being able to eat what my idol ate🩷
The happiness of walking where my idol walked🩷
The happiness of feeling the warmth of Korean people🩷
The happiness of eating delicious food made with love in a place with a nice view🩷
It was very, very fun.
The name of the restaurant is in the photo.
Please search for it and go there.
You can enjoy the authentic taste~(^^)

#HongKongFlightEvent #GangWonDo
Location: Gangwon-do GongGane Potato Ongsimi
A really delicious place… . They sell traditional Korean food like mooncakes and sujebi. It was the first time in my life that I ate a proper mooncake, not the mooncakes I used to eat at school, and it was so delicious. The sujebi was also perilla-based, so it was very rich and delicious. I want to go again…
The resort is large and has many ski slopes. The hotel rooms are apartment-style, large enough and have parking spaces. The only downside to the resort is that there are not many restaurants to choose from.
You must go to Gangwon-do in winter! It's "romantic and cute"
Korea also has places as beautiful as Sapporo!
This place has become a winter travel destination in life.
On the third day of coming to Seoul, we ran to Gangwon-do, and it was really right!
Nature is so wonderful, and it understands aesthetics.
I love this gift from nature!
I went to Samyang Ranch, and I felt like I was in a fairy tale world. I wore three pairs of pants and completely resisted the temperature of minus ten degrees.
I didn't feel cold when I took pictures, and the large snow made this little potato from the south so happy!
Location: Samyang Round Hill (formerly Samyang Ranch)
Every day 9:00-17:30 (admission ends at 16:30)
Adults 12,000 won / Children 10,000 won
(1,000 won discount when pre-selling online - not available on the day)
How to go to Gangwon-do tips:
Buy KTX train tickets, get off at Jinbu station and then take a taxi to Samyang Ranch.
(Make sure to buy in advance, we just wanted to go the day before, and the tickets were sold out)
We chartered a car, the advantage is that it is very convenient, no need to take an extra taxi, if you have more time, you can also go to Gangneung to see the sea, the sea in winter should also have a wonderful feeling.
Please be sure to confirm the snow removal information and weather conditions before visiting!
(It may be difficult to enter on a heavy snow day) Samyang Ranch
Triple Pension & Glamping Pension, Yangyang-gun, Gangwon-do, Sonyang-myeon

There's also a yard and the kids love it
I had a great time resting
