Beautiful Petite France in Korea

Petite France is a small French village located just a few Kms away from famous Nami Island. As the name depicts everything in here represents France. Starting from peculiar multi-storey arhitecture to narrow stone-lined streets it all gives a feeling as if you are actually walking in a French village. I visited the place with my family last year around same time and it was absolutely fun. There was also a traditional cultural show organizaed in the centre of the village witu specific timings during the day. Those who plan to visit it should also plan to visit Nami Island the same day. That way you will be able to explore two destinations in one go.

Do you know the famous Korean drama You Who Came From the Stars? One of the filming locations is in Petite France! If you are into exploring filming locations, don’t miss out on this tourist attraction. Other dramas were filmed here as well, but this place is more known for filming You Who Came From the Stars! #givethanks

Highly-recommended as the place is so beautiful for photo-taking. Only downpoint is the lack of cafes, snack kiosks or restaurants for tourists to relax and enjoy the scenery. Just 1-2 hours is enough to tour around the area. #GiveThanks

The Petite France

#koreatrip You will definitely enjoy this place if you adore Little Prince. As you may notice, there are a lot of colorful buildings here. Inside, you can see anything about the famous French book. There’s also a section in the area where you can see a magnificent view of Han River. While there are cafés inside, only a few operates during our visit. Before you get in, a circle sticker will be put on your clothes. And before you leave, you can stick that sticker to the gate to leave some sort of a mark.

Petite France / Italian Village

Joined on a tour to visit the places. Was not crowded and definitely an IG worthy place with the vibrant buildings and bring coloured houses. Note that it is an upslope for petite France and downslope for Italian village so if you’re travelling with a stroller there might be some issues. But I would recommend it in your itinerary if you have extra time because it’s definitely worth your time away from the city life in Seoul.

precious moment at French Village, Seoul

We Korean drama fans, do we want to go on a healing trip to the filming locations of our favorite dramas and take some photos? The small French village in Gyeonggi Province and the Chunjing Arboretum are favorite filming locations for Korean drama directors! These places are beautiful and romantic, and the photos taken there are super nice, especially in the summer when the birds sing and the flowers bloom!
