Moonlight Stroll
Yunseul Sentiment Tour
Let’s embark on a stroll along Gangneung’s stunning nightscape. The “Yunseul Sentiment Tour,” a nighttime healing tourism program, allows you to walk while observing the yunseul—the sparkling ripples reflected by sunlight or moonlight. You can walk along Gangneung’s night sea and lakes under the shimmering moonlight while enjoying outdoor concerts. On October 11, the tour follows the Gyeongpo Wetland, on October 24, from Gangmun Beach to Heo Nanseolheon’s birthplace, and on November 7, along Sageunjin Beach to Sunpo Wetland. Let’s take a walk and appreciate the beauty of Gangneung’s night sea, which differs from its daytime charm.
