[2025 Gyeongju Attraction] Travel Guide for Gyeongju Gyochon Traditional Village (Updated Jun)

A must-visit spot when traveling to Busan is the Gyeongju Choi Clan's old house, a well-preserved traditional Korean house. The Choi family was a prominent and wealthy family in Gyeongju, with a history spanning twelve generations. At its peak, the family owned an astonishing 1 million pyeong of land. The traditional Korean house architecture is quite rustic and charming. During its heyday, there were as many as 99 rooms, but now only 50 remain. Despite this, the place still exudes an antique charm. Visitors can wear hanbok and take photos here, and whether you're an influencer or not, once you put on the hanbok and walk around, you'll feel the atmosphere, making it a great place for photos.

#localescapes When visiting Gyeongju, I suggest taking a walk around Gyochon Village, especially at night. Within the village, you will see traditional architecture. It is a short walk from Cheomseongdae and the royal tombs. It also leads to the Woljeonggyo Bridge, which is also beautiful at night. In the village, there are experience centers, educational programs, and performances. The village is over 400 years old and has been in the Choi family for 12 generations. For locations is Namsan-dong, Gyeongju-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do.

Children under 12 years old are not allowed to accompany🙅🏻‍♀️ A proper Korean restaurant where you can taste the traditional flavors of Gyeongju's richest family! It's a place where you can enjoy it more privately because it's a reservation system, so it's a place where many people come for blind dates or family gatherings! It's a place where I felt happy throughout the meal because the taste of the food and the inner garden were both satisfying❤️ If you take a walk after eating at Woljeonggyo right in front, it's a perfect course😘

Hanbok snapshots taken on our first wedding anniversary🫶🏻 I brought you Hanbok snapshots belatedly for Chuseok:) It's already been a year... .🤭 We got married in our 20s, so we didn't have much money, but we decided to get married with our love and confidence in each other. So we reduced the wedding costs as much as possible and omitted many things that could be omitted, and one of them was getting Hanbok tailored. So, for our first wedding anniversary, we decided to wear hanbok and rented hanbok to take snapshots👩🏻‍❤️‍💋‍👨🏻 My husband and I think our natural expressions come out the most when we take pictures facing each other, so we have a lot of pictures of us facing each other😄 Let's continue to walk together and face each other for the rest of our lives, my partner @hoon_jn 😘 It's almost our second anniversary, what kind of concept should we take pictures with this year🤫 📍Gyeongju Kyochon Village & Woljeonggyo (2021.11) 📸 Photo by @nam.taehyeon_ 🎀 Hanbok rental @chaevidam #Couples#Date course#Life shot spot

It is not far from #Hwangridan-gil, so you can walk there~ It is fun to walk to the other side of Woljeonggyo Bridge and then walk back to Dol-dari Bridge. And the pictures come out well and the scenery is pretty even if you take a lot of pictures 💕 It is pretty at night, but I came during the day this time 😆 #If you come to Gyeongju, I recommend Woljeonggyo Bridge.
