About

It is a place that was the administrative center of the Gangneung region from the Goryeo Dynasty to the Joseon Dynasty. Several buildings showing the architectural style of the time, including Sammun Gate of Imyeonggwan (National Treasure No. 51), which is Gaeksamun, and Chilsadang, have been restored.

Stroll through the spacious government office site, imagine the appearance and status of the old local government office, and feel the breath of history in a tranquil atmosphere. During the Dano Festival period, it is also a place where major events are held, so you can see a more vibrant appearance.
