Yangsajae

An early Joseon-era hanok on Omokdae-gil in Jeonju's Wansan-gu district, Yangsajae sits within the historic Hanok Village — the largest concentration of traditional Korean wooden architecture in the country, and a five-minute walk from the Omokdae hilltop pavilion where Yi Seonggye celebrated the founding of the Joseon dynasty.

Guest rooms follow the original low-eaved layout with ondol-style heating and garden views, while private bathrooms, air conditioning, and daily housekeeping bring modern comfort. Food delivery to the room is available, useful for guests who want to eat in after an evening exploring the village's makgeolli bars.

Jeonju is two hours by KTX from Seoul. Yangsajae suits slow travellers pairing the Hanok Village with the city's bibimbap food trail.
