Is there another place where traditional and exotic moods blend so exquisitely! Pyeongchang and Gangneung are romantic cities where the temples, forests, and old buildings that have been passed for a long time talk to each other over a thousand years. As the city of <Winter Sonata>, Pyeongchang and Gangneung, which attracted many tourists from Japan and Southeast Asia, are now aiming for the '2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympics and Winter Paralympic Games'. By using the high-speed train between Seoul and Gangneung, which is scheduled to open in December, you can reach Pyeongchang and Gangneung, charming cities in less than 1 hour and 10 minutes, and you will be close to Daegwallyeong and coffee-scented winter sea full of white snow.

In addition to the three mountains of Mt. Geumgang, Jirisan, and Halla, Odaesan, one of the most famous mountains in Korea, is famous for its beautiful autumn leaves in mid-October. It is located in the arms of the Sangwonsa Temple, one of the top five extinction palaces, the 'Odaesan Accident', which houses the Annals of the Joseon Dynasty, and over 60 horses in Gangwon.

Woljeongsa Fir Forest Road is one of the most important things to keep in mind when talking about Odaesan.

The fir forest path that extends about 1km from the one-week gate to the Geumgang Bridge is a spectacular view with hundreds of years of fir trees soaring to the side of the road.

The fir forest road was created as a barrier-free trail in 2014. After crossing the Geumgang Bridge from the Woljeongsa parking lot, go to Iljumun along the fir forest path and return after passing through the Liberation Bridge.

The Woljeongsa parking lot, the starting point, has a disabled parking lot (5) and a disabled toilet (1 for men and women, 1 for women only), and the adjacent tourist information center has one wheelchair and one stroller for rent.

Overall, it is flat, but the section approaching the Geumgang Bridge and Haebang Bridge needs help from Gafala's assistant.

In front of the women-only toilet, there is a braille guidance as a barrier-free walk. You can also receive voice guidance by pressing the blue button in the lower right corner of the palpation.

Gangneung has another scent that is as thick as sol. It is coffee. Gangneung is the hometown of self-authored coffee. The first coffee museum in Korea is located in Gangneung, and it is also famous for the Anmok Coffee Street, which has more cafes than a coffee factory and sushi restaurant run by Mr. Park Lee-chu, a coffee master named 'Coffee First Generation'.

The 'Gangneung Coffee Festival', which started in 2009, marks the ninth time this year. As such, one of the best coffee spots in Gangneung, famous for coffee, is 'Terra Rosa', which is located in a quiet countryside in Gujeong-myeon, Gangneung-si.

Starting in 2002 as a coffee roasting factory that supplies coffee beans to production cafes, hotels, restaurants, etc., 'Terra Rosa Gangneung' became a café as more and more people heard and heard rumors. In July 2017, a cafe built with red bricks opened in a dense chestnut forest next to an old building. It's a beautiful building with some people on purpose.

As a new building, there is no inconvenience in moving in a wheelchair. There is a disabled toilet (1) opposite the entrance, and there is a disabled parking (1) closest to the entrance. Tables of different sizes and shapes have good wheelchair access, and the ceiling that extends to the second floor gives a refreshing feeling different from that of a typical cafe. The entrance, the first floor, and the outdoor cafe are all spacious and easily accessible. It is a pity that the second floor cannot be used because there is no elevator.

Next to Gyeongpodae, where you can see the five moons, is a world-renowned museum. These are the 'Chamsori Gramophone Museum', 'Edison Museum', and 'Son Sung-mok Movie, Radio and TV Museum'.

Unlike the exterior, all the exhibition halls are full of incredible collectibles.

Even in the mainland of the United States, there are many unique inventions in Edison's own world, such as 'Go to the Charmsori Edison Museum in Gangneung, Korea to see Edison's inventions'.

Founder Son Seong-mok found the result of gathering more than 200 countries over 60 years. What is even more surprising is that many of the exhibits are just a few of the collections. The items are periodically exhibited.

All three museums can be visited with a single admission ticket.

There are three parking lots for the disabled, and there are toilets for the disabled on the first floor of the Charmsori Gramophone Museum and the first floor of the Movie Museum. You can see the Charmsori Gramophone Museum and the Movie Museum on all floors with elevators and ramps, and the Edison Museum, which can be crossed from the Charmsori Gramophone Museum, on the first floor.

A movie museum about 30 meters away should go outside and re-enter. The middle ramp is a little steep, and there is also a jaw about 10 cm in front of the entrance to the movie museum.

In front of the museum, there is a viewing deck where you can see Gyeongpo Lake at a glance. Be careful when crossing a museum parking lot and crossing a pedestrian crossing without a signal. After crossing the pedestrian crossing, there are ramps to the sidewalk and to the view deck.

Gangneung is full of various attractions and cultures where you can meet coffee as a material, as there is a 'coffee map'. Among them, 'Bohemian Baked Coffee' is a coffee factory and cafe representing Gangneung, along with 'Terra Rosa', where you can taste fresh and fragrant coffee, including the world's best quality specialty coffee.

At around 10 am, the cafe is crowded enough to get a ticket, so it is recommended to find it before.

There is no step on the door, so it is good to use. However, it is a pity that the second floor cannot be used because there is no elevator.

There is an outdoor cafe with beautiful white parasols right in front of the first floor. The outdoor cafe is easily accessible via a ramp.

There are two parking lots for the disabled, and there is a toilet for the disabled with a separate space in the women's toilet on the first floor.

The sea is an essential part of the Gangneung tour. Among them, Gyeongpo Beach facing Gyeongpo Lake is the beauty of Gangneung Sea. There is a trail in the pine forest where you can experience the deep blue East Sea with your whole body along the wide sandy beach of Gyeongpo Beach.

The coastal walking trail from the central plaza to the peak of the river gate is 2.5km round-trip, and it is easy to move with a spacious wooden deck along the border between the white sand and pine forest.

All the way to the peak of the river gate, the sea seems to be close to the hand, and the smell of the wind makes you feel refreshed.

When returning from Sodadae Bridge, you can use the deck path inside the pine forest, so towards the road. This road passes through the middle of the pine forest and gives another joy.

Parking can be done using the 7 parking lots for the disabled located in the public free parking lot next to the plaza.

Disabled toilets (male and female) are located in the central square. This is the only public toilet.

The promenade is generally flat, and you need the assistance of an activity assistant to climb and descend the arched river gate.

As you travel around Gangneung, you can often see the Geumgang Pine Forest, which stretches out of the red nest.

However, there are few places where you can stroll through the pine forest full of phytoncide with a wheelchair.

'Gangneung Solhyang Arboretum', located at the foot of Chilseong Mountain in Gujeong-myeon, Gangneung-si, is the best place for a walk in the pine forest with a wheelchair.

Although various themed gardens have been established, the main character of Gangneung Solhyang Arboretum is definitely Geumgang Pine. Geumgang pine trees everywhere in the arboretum meet the true face of 'Solhyanggangneung'.

A forest ecological observation path made of wooden decks extends between these forests. Therefore, you can enjoy a pleasant walk like taking a shower in the scent.

There is a parking lot for the disabled (2) in the first parking lot at the entrance of the arboretum, and a toilet for the disabled in front of the parking lot and in the pine forest lawn square. There are also wheelchairs and strollers for rental (two each).

Most of the trails have wooden decks, so wheelchair access is easy. However, since it was created in the pine forest along the valley, there are many slopes, so it is necessary to assist the assistant.

If you go a little further from the Barong Tree Rest Area, the concrete pavement ends and a gravel road appears. We recommend you return from this section. Because the environment is well preserved, snakes may appear, so it's better not to go outside the road.

The recommended accommodation in Gangneung is 'Hotel MEMORY' (formerly Hotel Jin) in Jumunjin. It has a parking lot for the disabled (1) and rooms for the disabled. There is no step by installing a ramp on the side of the room and toilet. However, there is no step on the side that comes out from the room or bathroom, so there is a step inside and outside 5cm.

A safety bar is installed in the bathroom, and emergency bells are installed in the bathroom and in the rooms. Press the bell to turn on the emergency light.

Breakfast is not provided, but cooking facilities, rice and ramen are prepared in the common room on the first floor for free use.

At the entrance of Woljeongsa Temple, there are 'Sanchae Bibimbap', a restaurant that boasts of PyeongChang, and 'Odaesan Mountain Chaemaeul', which specializes in 'Hwangtae Grilled'. Odaesansanchaechae Village, which was formed by gathering restaurants scattered along the heads of Woljeongsa Temple, is well equipped with barrier-free facilities. There are toilets for the disabled for both men and women in the common toilet provided in the middle of the village.

'Sacheonmulhoe', which is seasoned and chilled with chopped turban shell, sea urchin, sea cucumber, and flounder, is a food that Gangneung boasts. The 'Haein Abalone Association' restaurant in 'Sacheonmulhoe Village' in Sacheon-myeon, Sacheon-myeon, Gangneung-si, is equipped with a ramp and toilet for the disabled.

Next to the Charmsori Museum, there is 'Gangneung Haechon', a grilled fish restaurant known to local residents. Grill fresh mackerel, saury, and imyeonsuh at the same time as your order, and prepare a prize with scooped pork wrap and ssam. There is a ramp at the entrance, and you can use the restroom in Gyeongpodae parking lot just in front of the restaurant.
