About

Gyeongpo Lake, a representative natural lagoon in Gangneung neighboring the sea, is a resting place boasting beautiful scenery throughout all four seasons. Along the lake spanning 4. 3km in circumference, walking trails and bicycle paths are well laid out, making it a great place to spend a leisurely time.

It is especially famous for the beautiful mood of moonlit nights, and a story is passed down that you can see 'five moons': the moon in the sky, the moon in the lake, the moon in the sea, the moon in the glass of liquor, and the moon reflected in the eyes of your beloved. Combined with Gyeongpodae, a pavilion in the center of the lake, it presents a picture-like landscape, and the sunset glowing red at dusk delivers unforgettable emotion.
