Recently, the entrance fees to major temples have been completely waived, significantly reducing the cost of visiting. From unique cafes perfect for photos to open sea viewpoints, we have compiled a list of must-visit attractions in Gimje that can be enjoyed in a day.
Free Admission Benefit: The Refreshing Walking Path of Geumsan Temple in June
Located at the foot of Moak Mountain, Geumsan Temple transforms into a pleasant walking spot in June, thanks to the lush trees that create natural shade. The cultural heritage viewing fee, once 3,000 won for adults, is now free, allowing anyone to explore the temple grounds for just a 2,000 won parking fee.
During the summer months, the temple is open until 7 PM, making it a great strategy to visit leisurely in the evening to avoid the heat. With a spacious parking lot and flat entry paths, families with strollers can enjoy a comfortable stroll.
Step into a Fairy Tale: The Unique Treehouse Opening at Noon
Constructed from discarded wood, Mizuno's Treehouse evokes the feeling of stepping into a fantasy movie set. It opens daily from noon to 6:30 PM, but it is closed every Tuesday, so checking the hours before visiting is essential.
The cafe is adorned with photo spots, making it a popular destination for couples on weekends. Small to medium-sized pets are allowed in the outdoor area, perfect for pet families looking to create unique memories.
Enjoying the Sunset Over the West Sea from Manghaesa Temple
Situated at the end of Jinbongsan, Manghaesa Temple literally means 'a temple overlooking the sea.' Standing in the temple courtyard, you can see the distant horizon and the Gokunsan Islands, complemented by a 400-year-old zelkova tree.
Visiting in the late afternoon on a clear day offers a spectacular view of the fiery sunset over the West Sea. A gentle walking path leads to the Saemangeum viewpoint, making for an easy hike.
Wide Open Plains and Relaxing Walks: The Family-Friendly Byeokgolje Course
Byeokgolje, the oldest irrigation facility in Korea, showcases a stunning scale in June with its lush green grass and massive twin dragon sculptures. It operates from 9 AM to 6 PM, with Mondays designated as a day off.
While there is a 3,000 won entrance fee for adults to visit the agricultural theme hall or museum, preschoolers can enter for free, making it an excellent outing for families.
