We had a quick walk tour as part of our Pohang tour. This is the biggest fish market in town and it really was hugely massive! There are so many seafood to choose from and the price is definitely super competitive! All the store owners seem very friendly.

The market is huge with a ton of options for seafood, both fresh and dried. You can also buy seafood and eat it in the upstairs restaurants as well. Parking is difficult but there is a public lot nearby.

It’s huge traditional market carry everything you wants for groceries: fresh fish, vegetables, restaurant, baked goods, etc…

Was amazing to see all different types of seafood here. It was a huge market and must see place in Po Hang if you are interested in looking at exotic seafood items. Picked up some crabs and thy steamed for us to take home. There was also areas that you can shop regular grocery items. Honestly everything looked fresh here. It was fantastic experience.

A huge selections of freah seafood and more

Very traditional market. The fish market is super interesting, people keep approaching you "offering" good deals in the restaurants associated. If you buy their fish they will cook it and serve it in the restaurant. Or they will prepare it for take out.

Clever idea to have restaurants in the middle of the market to immediately eat fresh seafood if you don't want to otherwise take it home.

A good place to have a picnic here. Don't forget to take a picture with the iconic hand statue. You can visit this place for free. The location is quite far. It takes around 60-90 minutes from the Pohang Bus Terminal. You can go there by bus/taxi

This is one of the most famous tourist spots in Pohang that you need to see. I suggest you come in spring or summer, as in cold times, the wind is very strong and cold. For some people this can be a big problem. Here you will find some restaurants and cafes. You will also find souvenir shops. Parking is large and free. There are usually a lot of people visiting the place, so come early to be able to photograph the attractions without having to fight for the best place to take the photo.

Its an amazing place for family and kids i enjoyed the ocean view and the smell of ocean

Nice place with sea view! Seagulls are gliding in the sky. You can really feel the coastal part here. Square is not overcrowded at all. There are some photo spots. Also, there is a postbox if you are a fan of sending postcards.

Great sun rise! Bit chilly but worth watching it though.

Very touristy but the large hand in the water likely gives a good motive at sunrise. You can spare this sight if you don't like many people and rather enjoy nature without signs of civilization.

Had a very beautiful sunny afternoon at the Homigot in the company of my friends. There are convenience stores, many photo spots and even people who sells snacks around the Square. I had a very nice time.

I visited Bogyeongsa Temple with my family on May 4, 2024. For Buddha's Birthday, one of S. Korea's public holidays, is near, the temple was nicely decorated. Many people visit this temple for praying to Buddha to make a wish. It takes around 20 minutes from the big parking area to Bogyeongsa Temple. The angle of sidewalk is not that stiff, easy to walk. On the way to this temple, there are many local food restaurants and some coffee shops as well. Enjoy.

Beautiful and peaceful temple surrounded by mountains. Mostly visited by locals, so it’s quiet and relaxing compared to touristy spots. The temple buildings are colorful and well-kept, with a calming atmosphere. After visiting, there’s a nice walking trail through the forest that leads to several waterfalls — the scenery is amazing, and the sound of the water makes it even more peaceful. The walk is not too hard, and you can enjoy fresh air and nature the whole way. A perfect place to enjoy both culture and nature in one visit.

Our visit to Bogyeongsa Temple near Pohang during our 2015 visit, and with Abunim and Omanim caught the bus, had lunch in the village just beyond the Temple grounds, then walked the long tree lined shaded path into the quiet and peaceful grounds of Bogyeongsa. Circumnambulating the Stupa, bowing before the Buddha images in the great hall, making a donation for a tile to help maintain and build the temple structures for future visitors, sitting quietly, listing to the stream, enjoying each others company and time together in the blessings of the Temple Buddhadhamma field. 🙏🙏🙏😊🌼🤌❤️ Perfect.

A beautiful and must see place.

My friend and I decided to come visit this temple while we were sightseeing in Pohang. As we drove up, we realized that we had come unprepared. We were dressed in street clothes while everyone else was wearing hiking outfits. The temple itself can easily be seen in an hour or so and this includes many picture breaks. This was perfect for our plans because we had more places we wanted to go. I would suggest, however, that when you visit, you come prepared with proper clothes, snacks, and water for a day of hiking. I have visited many temples in Korea and I'm unsure if I was just not as observant when I visited the others, but this temple had some lovely paintings on the outsides of the buildings. Cost of admission was ₩3,500 for adults. I did not have to pay for parking.

A beautiful hiking trail. The further you go the more it feels like an actual hike. The first bit is for all people

Fantastic place surrounded bei the Naeyeonsans National Park. The Bogyeongsa Temple is really huge with some beautiful Pavillons and Shrines. We loved this quiet place!

Lovely place to visit. So quite and peaceful. The view of mountain and the crystal clear lake was mesmerizing. The works of the temples was breathtaking. The white statue of Buddha is very beautiful. I loved every bit of it. I love the rocking bridge but at the same time I was scared as I don't know swimming 😂.

The river was all dried up for some reason but I assume it looks really beautiful when the river is full. The temple takes some walking to reach (about 3km) and there are hiking trails everywhere

A beautiful place to visit but also to receive for believers. We were not able to do the walk in the forest because of the heat but it looks interesting.

calm and comfort place to take a walk

This temple is a very quiet place and has a unique tranquility I don't always see in all temples

It is a small temple but you can see the traditional beauty of Korean old buildings. You can just park your car at the parking lot of the temple so that you do not need to walk.

This is a magical place. The main temple is just the start. Cross the bridge and go up the mountain behind the lake to see another gem up the creek. Then make sure you climb the mountain behind the temple to see the other temple up on teh mountain. There were some monks around which made it very awesome. I would go there everyday if I could. You can see all of Pohang if you continue to scramble up the mountain to the top.

This place is located in Homigot, Pohang and located just beside Homigot Sunrise Square which is one of the most famous places in the city. The place is basically part of this tourist spot and gives tourist learnings through its museum. My friends and I had a great time taking photos of the area and will surely go back again.

Displays are ok. They have English for some, but no other languages. Seems a little sparse, but I guess there's only so much to say about lighthouses. Worth a stop if you're in the area, otherwise not.

love the drive along to visit this place, such refreshing, free to enter, worth the visit , great to photography , a unique place ,If you visit pohang, this place is a must visit as there are nice scenaries around and there is a famuos arm in sea mounted by posco steel industries and the sunset at this place is good. And the way to reach this place from pohang very scenic.

Amazing drive all along the coast to get to the museum. Very interesting, and in a beautiful location!

Nice museum of lighthouses and naval navigation aids. Very suitable for small children.

Free admission. Worth to have a visit.

(Translated by Google) The exhibits are impressive, but the interior design and decor are clean and comfortable, making it a great place to cool off from the heat and enjoy the ocean views reflected through the floor-to-ceiling windows. There's an unmanned cafe on the second floor, so you can enjoy a leisurely cup of coffee. (Original) 전시물도 멋지지만 내부의 디자인과 인테리어가 깔끔하고 편안하게 더위를 식히기에도 좋고, 통유리창에 비치는 바닷가의 풍경을 감상하기에도 좋습니다. 2층에는 무인 카페가 있어서 커피 한잔의 여유를 즐길수도 있습니다.

It's a nice place to visit, if you are interested in museums and history then it's a must go place. Not very time consuming and its free to visit inside the ship. Nice place to click some shots. The view is amazing from the top. Highly recommended if you wanna explore pohang in limited time. There is a beautiful spot opposite to the ship across the bridge, if you are lucky you can experience some cultural performances. You can take couple photos. Bachelors may click some but if you are a Bachelor by choice, otherwise it hurts. 😊😉

The captains office and some other rooms were closed due to corona but the outside was open to visitors. The view from the top of the ship was amazing

Nice free activity

Really interesting place to visit. There are many helpful translations throughout the tour.

First place where I see all the internal part of a war ship. It is very satisfying.

The Warship Pohang, a decommissioned naval vessel turned museum, stands as a proud symbol of South Korea's maritime history. Docked in [location], it offers visitors a unique glimpse into naval technology and the country's defense heritage. Exploring its decks provides a hands-on experience, with exhibits detailing the ship's operational history and showcasing naval artifacts. From the engine room to the command bridge, the Warship Pohang provides an immersive journey through its service years. This floating museum not only educates on naval prowess but also honors the dedication of sailors who served. It's a must-visit destination for history enthusiasts and maritime aficionados alike.

There aren't many attractions in Pohang, but if you find yourself in Pohang, this is one of the places to go! It's a pretty cool and unique experience, especially if you've never been on a warship. This is a decommissioned warship that's open to the public to tour on your own. There's very little restrictions on where you allowed to go, and paths are clearly marked so you can walk around alone. It doesn't take too long to walk through; about 30 minutes to an hour will be sufficient unless you're stopping to take a lot of photos. Worth a visit!

Guryongpo Modern History Museum or Hashimoto Zengichi House will surely send you to other country - Japan and this 2-storey house was made by him. The house is located in Pohang and the street is really different compared to normal streets and Korea. The place was used by the award winning Korean drama "When the Camellia Blooms" as their drama location that's why lot's of people are visiting the place. Also, the area is easy to access by car or buses.

When i visited this place, suddenly i felt that i was in another country...yes, I felt that I was in Japan... The houses, shops and the atmosphere

Beautiful old Japanese house

Good place for Kids to enjoy

Nice

(Translated by Google) I visited on a weekday afternoon. It is located in Guryongpo Japanese House Street, and there may be a wait as the number of people admitted is limited. It is said that Mr. Hashimoto, who came from Japan during the Japanese colonial period, lived there, and after liberation, it was used as a residence, but was purchased by Pohang City and used as a history museum. At the time of my visit, I couldn't go up to the second floor, but on the first floor, there was an exhibition to help me understand the structure of the building and life at the time, so if you're interested, it would be a good idea to take a look around. (Original) 평일 오후에 방문 하였습니다. 구룡포 일본인 가옥거리 안에 위치하고 있으며 입장인원수가 제한이 있는지 대기가 있을 수 있습니다. 일제강점기에 일본에서 넘어온 하시모토씨가 살았다고 하며 해방 이후 주거용으로 사용하다 포항시가 매입하여 역사관으로 사용되고 있습니다. 방문당시 2층은 올라갈 수 없었고 1층에는 그 당시 건축물의 구조나 삶들을 잘 알수 있게 전시되어 있어 관심이 있으시다면 둘러 보시면 좋을 것 같습니다.

Great stadium to take in a match. The crowd was enthusiastic, it was very affordable, had great seats and the Steelers won the game!

The oldest football specific stadium (without running track) in Korea, also the best stadium. currently used home for Pohang Steelers.

Home to the Steelers of Pohang

Good place and perfect city

Fun

🖤❤️THIS IS STEELYARD🖤❤️

What is this place doing in South Korea? Why is it here?

(Translated by Google) Yonggyejeong Pavilion Yonggyejeong Pavilion in Deokdong Village, the Yeogang Yi clan's village. A scenic spot designated as a national natural heritage site in August 2011. It is designated as “Pohang Yonggyejeong and Deokdong Forest” Designated as a treasure on August 29, 2024 This time, Pohang Gyegi-myeon was designated as a treasure. “Bunokjeong” is well preserved. Yong account is a bit disappointing. I wish it would be managed with more effort. (Original) 용계정(龍溪亭) 여강이씨의 집성촌인 덕동마을에 있는 용계정 2011년 8월에 국가지정자연유산인 명승 "포항 용계정과 덕동숲"으로 지정 되어있다 2024년 8월 29일 보물로 지정 되었다 이번에 같이 보물로 지정된 포항 기계면에 있는 "분옥정"은 잘 보존 되고있다 용계정은 좀 아쉬움이 있다 더 분발하여 관리 되었으면 한다.

(Translated by Google) It's a great place for a quick walk inside Deokdong Culture Village. Since it is a place designated as a scenic spot, it was nice to see that it was well established and managed to some extent. It rained heavily the day before I went, so the water flowed a lot, so the scenery was even better. The lotus hasn't bloomed yet, so it's a bit plain, but I thought it would be prettier when it blooms. Yonggyejeong is simply nice to look at, and I really liked Deokdong Forest next to it. The unique pine trees are really pretty and grow tall, and there is a lying tree blocking the road, so it may be a little uncomfortable. (Original) 덕동문화마을 안쪽에 정말 간단하게 산책하기 좋은 장소 입니다. 명승으로 지정된 장소다 보니 조성과 관리가 어느정도는 잘 되어 있어서 좋았습니다. 가기전날 비가 많이 와서 물이 많이 흘러서 더 경치가 좋았습니다. 아직은 연꽃이 피지않아서 조금 밋밋하긴 하지만 꽃피면 더 이쁠것 같았습니다. 용계정은 그냥 간단히 보기 좋고 옆에 덕동숲이 정말 마음에 들었습니다. 특유의 소나무들이 정말 이쁘고 크게 자라있고 누워 있는 나무가 있어서 길을 막고 있으니 조금 불편할수도 있습니다.

Interesting museum about the history of ironworks in Pohang and Korea. Everything is explained in English. Worth a short visit. There were ao many things to see here, Several exhibits were seen from outside. The artwork was really pretty

It was on our way after doing the Pohang Space Walk on a really hot day. We so appreciated the AC and nice stroll. Learned a thing or two so I’d say visit for curiosity but if pressed for time, I wouldn’t go.

Interesting to walk around, some interesting exhibits It would be good to combine it with visiting something else if you have gone out there especially. The skywalk is nearby too.

Not a huge amount to see here but worth a quick look if you are visiting the space walk or need something for a wet day.

Pohang museum of arts, a.k.a. PoMA, has a wonderful location at Buk-gu, a nothern area of Pohang. Surrounded by Hwanho park, dozens of steel and stone sculptures are exhibited outside musuem. The building itself is also a designed beauty but there are not that many artworks as expected. On thing to note. Most of the visitors are parents with children age below 5 who live nearby but they don't care much of their kids. This is not good. Staffs must regulate this kind of visitors so that other visitors are not distacted by screaming and running children.

Great museum in a lovely park! Cool building with exhibits that change monthly. The park has a lot of statues too and looks especially wonderful during cherry blossom season.

There were ao many things to see here Several exhibits were seen from outside The artwork was really pretty whwn I went inside It was good to leave many memories I want to come again next time
