Hours

9am–6pm

Address

42 Bukmun-gil, Ganghwa-eup, Ganghwa

The Goryeo court sat here for 39 years while hiding from the Mongols. No palace survives. What remains are a few Joseon-era government buildings and low stone terraces on a hillside. A loop takes little time, and the slope gives a view over the town roofs. Ganghwa Church is just below, so the two pair easily.
