Soje-dong, Dong-gu, Daejeon

Railway Residency Village, located near Daejeon Station, retains much of its old charm, offering visitors the feeling of stepping back in time. Daejeon’s modern history is closely tied to the development of its railroads. With the opening of the Gyeongbu Line in 1905 and the Honam Line in 1911, the city emerged as a major transportation hub. As traditional villages began to disappear, people flocked to Daejeon, transforming it into a growing metropolis. During the Japanese occupation in the 1930s, the area housed many Japanese railway engineers, which is why Japanese-style architecture can still be found today. At the time, there were over 100 government buildings, though only about 40 have survived. Several of these have been recognized as Registered Cultural Properties for their historical significance. Among them, Building No. 42 now serves as a cultural space that occasionally hosts exhibitions. A stroll along the quiet Solangseoul-gil offers visitors a chance to admire charming murals adorning the walls, adding to the nostalgic atmosphere of the village.
