Korean Traditional Cultural Center

The Korean Traditional Cultural Center is right next to the Jeonju Hanok Village. The exhibition hall is free to visit. One of the most interesting exhibits is about the 10 tastes of Jeonju, which represents the distinctive flavours of Jeonju cuisine.

We also learnt about the seaonal foods for every month of the year, e.g. meoseumnal in February, seotdal geumeum in December. You can also see the dishes prepared for special occasions, like wedding or 60's birthday.

All in all, it's an interesting destination that enriches your understanding of Jeonju and its awesome cuisine.

전주향교일원

Located about 30 minutes walk east of the Hanok Village, this beautiful shrine is a perfect escape from the crowd in the village. It was used as a filming location for multiple TV drama series, most notably Sungkyunkwan Scandal (one of my favorites).

Nambu Market

The Nambu Market is located about 10 minutes away from the Hanok Village. Similar to other local markets in South Korea, this market have a mix of restaurants, clothing stores, and souvenir shops. At night, it turns into a night market with many street food vendors.
