Things to do in Gunsan, KR
Gunsan was a small fishing village on the banks of the Geum River, near where the river spills into the Yellow Sea. It sits on the fertile western Honam plain where much rice is harvested. Gunsan became a port in the late 19th century largely due to pressure from the Japanese on the Koreans to ship rice to Japan.
We were in Gunsan on April 22 , 2017 after a 3 day adventure in Jeju-do. After depositing our luggages at our Korean friend's house at Seocheon , we went back to Gunsan for a late lunch at an Italian resto ( I know! ...a lot of road trip going back and forth,, but it was worth it). The resto was right infront of Eunpa Lake.
Located in Gunsan, Jeollabuk-do, Eunpa Lake Park was once a reservoir built before the Joseon Dynasty that supplied water to nearby farms. The lake and its surrounding mountains were designated a national tourist site in 1985, but remain historically significant as they are featured on Daedongyeojid
