Naganeupseong Folk Village
A walled village where families still live inside historic thatched-roof houses.
Naganeupseong is a rare living fortress town: around a hundred families still farm and live inside the Joseon-era walls, in thatched houses with earthen courtyards. You can walk the full circuit of the rampart in half an hour and look down over the roofs and vegetable plots.
Walk through living fortress villages, historic port streets and quiet traditional gardens where the region's stories remain visible.
