Gongju — Festivals & Places Worth Going
26 places in Gongju described in English by the Korea Tourism Organization. Every entry comes with the Korean address you can paste into a map app.
Why we give you Korean addresses
Google Maps cannot give driving or transit directions inside South Korea — map data cannot be exported. Paste the Korean address (or the Korean name) into NAVER Map or KakaoMap instead. Both work with what is on this page, and they are what people here actually use.

Taking the trip home
A small Korean brand called kory puts city names on everyday things — hair rollers, hair ties, claw clips, scarves.
We help make kory, so this is not a paid placement — but it is a link we have an interest in. That is why it sits here at the bottom and nowhere else. Product pages and the shop home are in English; a few other pages there are still Korean only.
