  • Wonderful little area of town, hiking to the top brings you to a small temple and a beautiful surrounding view of the city. Make sure and go into the fish market as you make your way out to see the amazing selection of locally caught fish and sea life.
  • The sunset view over Tongyeong from the mural village is excellent. The sun sets just over the hills behind the town. The mural village takes approx 20 mins to walk through and there are many cafes and some small shops along the walk. Some of the art is great, some needs reworking due to aging but generally it’s a great site to visit Edie silly for the panoramic views over the city and surrounding areas. There are toilets along the route and parking at the bottom of the village.
  • Cool village to walk around and take artistic pictures. Neat little coffee shops. Then great seafood down the hill. Awesome visit!
  • 걷는곳 계속 쭉 ~~ Mural Village. It is a place full of paintings on the walls of a small town. It is a pretty neighborhood with a view of the sea, where you can relax quietly, with cafes and small shops. You will have to walk for a long time, so please wear comfortable shoes.
  • Very nice cultural area. Area is characterized by painting on house walls. Nice and colorful atmosphere. Old corean houses are now cozy coffe Bari where to stop and enjoy company and view with family and friends.
