Omokdae está situado en la cima de una colina y se trata de uno de los lugares donde Yi Seong-gye (quien se convirtiera más tarde en el rey Taejo, el primero de la dinastía Joseon) hizo una parada para celebrar su victoria de camino a casa tras la guerra contra los invasores japoneses, al final de la era Goryeo. Enfrente de Omokdae está Imokdae, situado cerca de los pies del monte Seungamsan, donde se encuentra Chimyeongjasan, un monumento católico. En este lugar, Mokjo (antepasado del rey Taejo) solía jugar con sus amigos a representar guerras de niño, una acción muy simple que aparecería después en 'Yongbieocheonga', una balada del siglo XV que narra los logros culturales de la nación.

La Aldea Tradicional de Jeonju (Hanok Maeul) está ubicada en las zonas de Pungnam-dong y Gyo-dong. En esta área se encuentran concentradas aproximadamente 800 casas tradicionales de Corea, las hanok. Este lugar es famoso por conservar intacto el estilo tradicional, proporcionando la oportunidad de disfrutar el ambiente antiguo y folclórico del país.
Lo más elegante de esta aldea es seguramente el estilo de los techos de las hanok. La peculiaridad de esta vivienda es que el borde de los techos está ligeramente dirigido hacia el cielo. La estructura de estas casas se divide en dos secciones: anchae y sarangchae. Anchae, siendo el lugar donde permanecen las mujeres, también es llamado gyusubang; mientras que el sarangchae es el lugar utilizado por los hombres, también llamado seonbibang. La construcción arquitectónica diferencia el sector destinado a los hombres y mujeres. De tal manera, el anchae, por ser el lugar donde residen las mujeres, se localiza en la parte más resguardada y silenciosa de la casa.
Otra característica es que los cuartos son de ondol, un sistema de calefacción instalado en el suelo. La estructura del ondol es bastante simple, consiste en aplicar el sistema de calefacción debajo del piso, con pasajes horizontales para el humo y una chimenea vertical para el escape. Una de las grandes ventajas es que en verano es fresco y en invierno, caliente.
Además de los recorridos, observando la sabiduría y las costumbres tradicionales de la antigüedad, otro de los atractivos lo componen las actividades culturales que consisten en experimentar las habitaciones de ondol y degustar del plato típico famoso de la ciudad, el bibimbap (arroz mezclado con surtido de vegetales).

Jeonjuhanok Korean House is a traditional Korean house built more than 60 years age, and it was recently remodeled for visitors to see and experience an old traditional Korean house. It’s conveniently located on the street called "Eunhaeng-ro" right in the middle of Jeonju Hanok Village for those visiting the area to take a tour of the hanok village. Although it's in the middle of the village, it's quiet inside because it's located at the end of a long, wide alley, which has the feel of an art gallery thanks to the lighting. There is a table in the yard in front of the ‘ㄱ’-shaped house. Behind the house is a café where breakfast is served. The house has an open space between the rooms called "toetmaru", which serves as a living room as in all traditional Korean houses. It’s where Koreans used to rest under the warm sunlight in the old days. The guests must pass through this "toetmaru" to get to the roms.
Jeonjuhanok Korean House has seven "ondol (floor-heated)” rooms with a loft. The rooms are clean and have a simple interior with a wooden ladder to the loft, which is a favorite place for most kids staying here with their parents. Each guestroom is furnished with a water purifier. The guesthouse serves toast, caffe Americano, fruits, and tea for breakfast.

Situated within Jeonju Hanok Village, Siwon is a hanok experience hall designated by the local government. The names of its individual rooms carry such meanings as “a wish for a life full of love, health and joy”. Each room (except the Gadeukbang) has a small attic where guests can have fun climbing up and down a ladder.
The clay structure with a wood shingle roof is the source of many fond memories for the owner, a permanent fixture of the village, who was born and grew up in the house. The house was once called “the house of persimmon trees in Ssangsiam alley”.
Although the framework of the house was completed in 1954, it has only been open to tourists since it was repaired and renovated in 2014. The house has been fully insulated against draughts and sound-proofed, transforming into a comfortable, cozy guest house that retains the unique beauty of a traditional Korean hanok.
The house’s yard contains a small flower garden and a swing, as well as a space where guests can play tuho, a traditional game in which the players try to throw sticks into a canister, jaegichagi, and other traditional games. In addition, guests can try their hand at woodcraft by cutting and carving pieces of wood into artworks of their own making.
A number of attractions are within walking distance of Siwon, including Gyeonggijeon Shrine, which contains the portrait of King Taejo Seong-gye Yi, the founder of the Joseon Dynasty; Jeondong Cathedral, which features a European architectural design; Omokdae, where King Taejo defeated the Japanese army and held a banquet; Jeonjuhyanggyo Local Confucian School; Namcheon Bridge and Cheonyeonru Pavilion; Nambu Market, a foodies’ paradise; and the Youth Mall

The Korea's largest "hanok (traditional Korean house)" village in the middle of Jeonju, Jeollabuk-do has been there for hundreds of years. Today, you can see new as well as old houses there. “Inyeon” is one of the traditional Korean houses located near the public parking lot on the outskirts of the hanok village, making it a great place to stay overnight in quiet. The word "inyeon" means "relationship" in Korean, referring to all types of ties with other people. The owner of the guesthouse named the place as such because she is greatful for all the guests and wanted to treat them well. She opened the guesthouse in September 2014. Since then, she has been kind enough to tell her guests which places are good to visit and which foods are delicious. She makes sure all the facilities including sheets and blankets are maintained clean for her guests to have a memorable stay. Built in the 1960's and remodeled in 2008, the traditional house is neat with most of the traditional features. It has four guestrooms named "Apricot Flower", "Orchid", "Chrysenthemum", and "Bamboo". The "Orchid Room" and "Bamboo Room" can accommodate up to seven people. The floor is covered with lacquered traditional Korean paper, and there are a number of traditional items in the room including the Korean gong. The traditional Korean ceiling rafters are visible in all the rooms.
All the rooms are furnished with a bathroom, air conditioner, TV, refrigerator, toiletries, and hair dryer. There is a 200-year-old pomegranate tree in the yard, and a table and chairs right in front of it for the guests to relax on a fair day. The table made of an old door and chairs made of a log under the red pomegranates are one of the most outstanding features of this guesthouse.

Located in Jeonju Hanok Village, Yangsajae was the place where the poet Lee Byeong-gi (pen-name: Garam, sijo poet) composed his sijo (a Korean traditional poetic form) works. Now used as a cultural space, the house attracts many people looking for relaxation and cultural experiences.
Yangsajae, meaning “a house (jae) that cultivates (yang) classical scholars (sa)”, was an annex of the Jeonjuhyanggyo Confucian School where classical scholars used to study in preparation for the national civil service examinations. As an educational and creative place, Lee Byeong-gi composed sijo poems there for six years from 1951. It later served as the Jeonbuk Public Elementary School with the introduction of new learning to the Jeollabuk-do area in 1987. Since 2002, however, it has served as a hanok stay dedicated to promoting local history and traditions to the public. It is said that the building was constructed on a 400-year-old site about 150 years ago. In 1980, repair work was conducted to save the basic structure of the house.
The house is a typical ‘ㄱ’-shaped hanok structure with a half-hipped roof. In particular, the three dormitory rooms originally used by Confucian students and classical scholars can be converted into one single room for seminars, tea ceremonies, or other group meetings simply by opening the bunhapmun (sliding doors).
The guesthouse is a ‘ㅡ’-shaped hanok built in 1980. Each room has a clean and cozy interior with simple decoration and furniture. The rooms include the Gudeul (floor heated with firewood) Room, where the tea ceremony program using green tea leaves picked from the wild green tea field behind the house is held, and the Ondol (Korean floor heating system) Room.
As the poet Lee, who loved orchids, poems and alcohol, lived at Yangsajae, there are still traces of his former presence inside the house. Notably, Lee used the ‘Garamdasil’ room as his study room, so it displays some of his photos.
There is a postbox situated in a corner of the yard which the guests can use, and the owner will deliver the mail himself. Yangsajae is not only a hanok accommodation but also a multi-experience space where guests can discover traces of the old educational institute and the poet Lee’s life and works.

Gyodong Gaon is located right in the middle of the main street of Jeonju Hanok Village. The word "gaon" means "middle" in Korean. It's a two-story traditional Korean house that stands out among the rest of the traditional Korean houses in the alley leading to Omokdae. Just inside the gate is a yard with colorful flower trees, jars of sauces, and furnace. The mural on one of the walls is popular among the guests as a place to take photos.
The "numaru", or "loft" in Korean, overlooks the Hanok Village, and is one of the best places in the village to get a closer look at the 500 year old zelkova tree and the foot of the mountain nearby. Open to all the guests, the "numaru" is very popular during the winter as well as the summer. It's an open space with a wooden floor, so it's very cool during the summer, and it also serves as an observatory to enjoy the view of all the snow-covered trees and roofs in the Hanok Village during the winter while having a hot cup of tea.
The owner of the guesthouse has been living here for 37 years. He rebuilt his house and turned it into a hanok guesthouse in 2014 while making sure the rooms are well insulated and comfortable to stay.
He built a two-story building to make an efficient use of the space, and focused on making all the rooms look different. The house has five rooms, and only the “Meomulda Room” on the first floor is the only rooms with a living room separated from the bedroom. All you have to do is open the door to enjoy the view of the yard, Hanok Village, and Omokdae. The “Nanuda Room” on the second floor is the largest one that can accommodate more than five people, making it the most popular choice among families. The "Damda Room" and "Kkumkkuda Room" both have an attic that can be reached by a ladder. The attic is big enough to sleep two adults, and some guests actually sleep there for a unique experience. One of the walls of the attic is finished with cypress wood which has a pleasant scent. The “Geurida Room” has the best view through the two windows on the either side of the room, in addition to warm sunlight and cool wind that come through the window. Modern, not traditional, doors are installed in all the rooms for better sound proofing and insulation.
Gyodong Gaon offers a number of experience programs, such as traditional games like “gulleongsoe”, “tuho", and “Korean top”, As well as “sabang chigi”, “sampalseon”, and “ttangttameokgi”.
Many Korean adults are familiar with these games, while children and foreigners can find these games interesting. All these traditional Korean games are free to play.

Sky is a guesthouse located in an alley next to the Jeonju Hanok Village Parking Lot. The house was built in 1930 and remodeled in 2014. It was originally a Japanese-style house, but the original building was completely demolished and a traditional Korean house was built in its place. The sheets and blankets in all the guestrooms are embroidered by the owner of the guesthouse. Her embroidery skills make some of the guests choose to stay at this guesthouse since they can learn the trade from her. She offers an embroidery class for such guests for only KRW 4,000 per person, and only 5 people are allowed in the class. If you want, you can also play the traditional Korean game called "yutnori" for free.
