2025 Daejeon Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in June)

If you're in Daejeon, you absolutely have to check out Seongsimdang! Daejeon is known for its diverse food options, and among them, Seongsimdang stands out as one of the most famous spots. It's so iconic that you could even call Daejeon the city of Seongsimdang. There are numerous Seongsimdang branches scattered throughout the city, and every store seems to have long lines of customers. I was genuinely surprised by its popularity! This was my first time visiting Daejeon and Seongsimdang, and I was blown away by the incredible taste and high quality of their baked goods. If you ever plan a trip to Daejeon, I highly recommend visiting Seongsimdang. While the main store is a must-see, there are plenty of branches around the city that are just as good. The main store often has extremely long waiting times, so you might want to consider visiting one of the branches instead. Among the baked goods I tried, the salt bread and the chocolate-topped bread were absolutely delicious. I also had the fried Soboro bread, which was amazing. The fried chive Soboro bread was particularly memorable. I hope you get a chance to try these treats when you visit!

#DomesticHotel #DaejeonTravel #DaejeonAccommodation 2nd visit to Daejeon Ramada Hotel! L A place that a Daejeon native uses every time he comes to Daejeon! The best place when considering price • Location - Bongmyeong-dong, Yuseong-gu (center) L Located in Bongmyeong-dong, where many real Daejeon people hang out L There is NC Department Store right next to it, and Bongmyeong-dong Street is a 5-10 minute walk away, so there are many restaurants/bars, which is great.!

L I used it for around 100,000 won including breakfast~ L (Bathtub O) I really like rooms with bathtubs, and the basic room has a bathtub so I can use it without paying extra! L (Room size) It's a basic room but it's not too small and it's wide L (View) It's a road view, but it's a wide view L (Cleanliness) The most important thing is cleanliness 90od, neat + clean L Amenities 0/ Toothbrush and toothpaste are purchased separately due to environmental policy!

This is a gem of a coffee shop that I’ve loved going back to again and again since its opening of this first location. Oh their bakes are really butrery. You can smell the butter in their baking as you enter and the coffee was a great complement. Their pastries and coffees have stayed ever delightful and scrumptious (their scones are my personal absolute favs). Note that it can be busy with a lot of tourists and visitors, but hopefully it won’t deter you as it is still worth a try for sure! #koreatrip#thingstodo #afternoonteatime

Stendhal Hotel in Daejeon offers the enjoyment of Yuseong Hot Springs. I stayed in a suite, but even if you don't book a suite, all rooms have hot spring water, so you can enjoy the hot spring in any room with a bathtub. The facilities are clean, and they provide two bath additives, allowing you to fully enjoy the hot spring. The location is near a bustling area, making it convenient to go out for meals. Additionally, breakfast is provided for all guests, so you can have a simple breakfast with coffee, cereal, and fruit before heading out in the morning.

I went to a famous bakery in Daejeon that Koreans say they want to try at least once! I arrived at the bakery around 7:30pm and waited in line for about 30 minutes before entering the store. My goal was the signature dish, "Soboro Bread" (photos 2-3). It's a deep-fried bread made of sweet bean paste covered with cookie dough😳 It was crispy and crunchy, and I ate it all in one go. "Soboro Bread" comes in four flavors: original, sweet potato, chocolate, and chive (not fried), and each one costs 1,700 won (about 180 yen). *Chinese chive is 2,000 won They also have a wide selection of savory breads, sweet breads, and rye breads. Some of the breads are unfamiliar to Japanese people, such as bread with mochi, so be careful not to buy too much🤣 It's about an hour and a half by train south of Seoul. How about a trip to a different area of ​​Korea than usual? ☺️ 📍 Daejeon Central Park Daejeon Road 480th Street 15 🕒 8:00-22:00 #Overseas seasonal places#Korea #Korea trip #Korean food #Daejeon #Daejeon trip #Seongshindong #Seonshindam

#Travel itinerary 👟 I arrived at Daejeon Station around 1pm and headed straight to the main branch of Seongsimdang! After waiting outside for about 10-20 minutes, I went in and quickly bought just enough to eatㅎㅎ (for lunch) 👟 Hideout Cafe recommended by a friend who lives in Daejeon! Wow, I really recommend the lemon cake here.... The mugwort latte also has vanilla ice cream in it, so it's super filling, rich and delicious! 👟 I took the subway to the outdoor footbath to help with digestion! Wow, this is a spacious footbath that you can use for free, and the facilities are clean and it's also great for recovering from fatigue from moving around all day.. 👟 I ordered 2 servings of kalguksu & a plate of boiled pork at a kalguksu restaurant near the footbath, but the amount of kalguksu was really x100 moreㅜ 👟 Lastly, I went to a place that had a musical fountain to see the night view, but since it was winter, I couldn't see the fountain, so I took pictures at the observatory above it, and it was surprisingly fun to play, so I recommend it:)
