Wandering Through Yangdong’s Living Tapestry

#holidayitinerary Yangdong Folk Village felt like a gentle step back into Korea’s Joseon past. Thatched roofs, stone walls, and winding paths stitched together a landscape of quiet dignity and tradition. I wandered between hanok homes nestled in misty hills, where the rhythm of rural life still hums softly. Elderly residents greeted me with warm smiles, and the scent of pine and fermented soy lingered in the air. It wasn’t just picturesque—it was profoundly human. Every corner whispered stories of scholars, farmers, and families. Yangdong isn’t a museum—it’s a living village, where history breathes and beauty rests in the everyday.
