Haenam Kimchi Village: a kimchi-making experience village opened in 2007
The Kimchi Information Village in Donghae-ri, Bukpyeong-myeon, was created in 2007. With your children, you can try the whole kimchi-making process, from choosing good ingredients to making kimchi and learning how to store it. The name Donghae-ri comes from the village facing east and looking out on the sea.
Haenam Kimchi Village: rice cake pounding, a bat cave, and mudflat activities
Besides kimchi making, it runs rice cake pounding, water play, bat cave exploration, and mudflat programs, so it suits children's nature study. The rocks on both sides of the road at the village entrance and the reservoir with dinosaur paintings are also worth a look.
