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.

Jung-gu is the heart of Daejeon Metropolitan City and is home to Bomunsan Mountain and Banghwasan Mountain. Bomunsan Mountain is located in the southern part of the city and was once called "Bomulsan" meaning "treasure mountain" because it was believed that treasure was buried in the mountain. Bomunsan Mountain was designated as a park in 1965. There are many mineral springs and the azaleas and cherry blossoms that bloom in spring. In autumn, the leaves change to a beautiful color in the maple forest. This park has the Bomunsanseong Fortress and Bomunsa Temple Site, an outdoor music hall, an observatory, amusement facilities, a cable car, and about 10 hiking trails, making it a great place to exercise. There are also recreational facilities such as mountain climbing as well as leisure facilities including an indoor roller skating rink in Sajeong Park, soccer field, outdoor music hall, Greenland, and Youth Square.

The Bomunsan Forest Trail is a 13-kilometer walking trail that circles Bomunsan Mountain. The dense forest along the trail creats a cool shade to walk under and boasts beautiful fall foliage in autumn.
