Jeonju Hanok Village
전주한옥마을
Seven hundred hanok houses, where the village itself is the sight.
See in search →Must do
Hanbok rental shops line the lanes, and wearing one gets you into Gyeonggijeon for free.
Gyeonggijeon Shrine
경기전
The shrine holding the portrait of the king who founded Joseon.
See in search →Must do
It sits in the middle of the village, so you just walk in. The bamboo grove and stone walls are best early, before the crowds.
Gaengnidan-gil
객리단길
The old downtown street that young shops moved into.
See in search →Must do
The mood is nothing like the hanok village. Many places only open in the evening, so go late.
Makgeolli Alley
막걸리 골목
Order one kettle of makgeolli and the side dishes keep arriving.
See in search →Must do
Come with at least one other person. Every additional kettle brings a fresh round of food.
Insider's note
Jeonju is a walking city. Stay inside the hanok village and your commuting disappears; the makgeolli alleys are a ten-minute taxi ride in the evening.
