Places, cafés and restaurants we visited in Jeonju.
Jeonju is a UNESCO City of Gastronomy. What that means on a plate: what makes Jeonju bibimbap different from every other version, the local bean sprout soup with its poached egg, and where to eat.
A first-timer's guide to Jeonju: how to get there from Seoul, why the bus beats the train, what the Hanok Village actually is, and how to plan two days in Korea's UNESCO City of Gastronomy.
Choosing a base in Jeonju: sleeping inside the Hanok Village in a traditional house, the practical hotel options near the station and downtown, and why staying overnight changes the trip.
What to see in Jeonju with 2026 hours and prices: Gyeonggijeon Shrine, Jeondong Cathedral, the view from Omokdae, the Confucian school and its November ginkgos, hanji paper workshops and the Friday night market.
