Yeongju itineraries

Seowon morning, Buseoksa sunset

Catch the morning KTX-Eum from Cheongnyangni and you are under the pines at Sosu Seowon before lunch, then leaning on the Anyangnu railing at Buseoksa as the sun drops behind the Sobaek ridges. If Yeongju gets one day, this is the order.

Punggi hot spring, Buseoksa dawn

Day one: off the train at Punggi, the ginseng market, a Sobaeksan waterfall and a long soak in the hot spring. Day two: Buseoksa before the tour buses. Light on walking, so it suits parents.

Log bridge to Sobaeksan

With a car you can stitch Yeongju together from the river in the south to the mountains in the north: a day on the Museom riverbank, a day of seowon and Buseoksa, then Sobaeksan and a hot spring to finish.
