Suwon Hwaseong Fortress

Hwaseong Fortress, a UNESCO World Heritage site built in 1796 under King Jeongjo’s reign. This meticulously designed structure served both military and administrative purposes, reflecting advanced construction techniques of its time. During the visit, explore key features such as the impressive Paldalmun Gate, the serene Hwahongmun Pavilion, and the fortress walls that offer scenic views of Suwon. This segment provides a deeper understanding of Korea's architectural heritage and the historical significance of the Joseon Dynasty's efforts to fortify and unify the region.

03:30 PM

Korean Traditional Archery

The Korean Traditional Archery class offers a unique opportunity to experience Guk-Gung, a practice with over 10,000 years of history, originating during the Gojoseon period for hunting and warfare. Over centuries, it evolved into a refined practice, especially during the Joseon Dynasty, where it became central to military training and state rituals. Unlike Western archery, which focuses on target accuracy, Guk-Gung uses a smaller, more flexible bow designed for quick firing, emphasizing power and mobility.


In this class, you'll learn the techniques behind shooting with a traditional wooden Korean bow, mastering alignment, breathing, and focus, which are essential for precision. The experience goes beyond just shooting—it also introduces the cultural and spiritual aspects of archery, as it was once a form of meditation and discipline. With the guidance of skilled instructors, you’ll gain a deeper appreciation for this ancient art, understanding its connection to Korea’s history and its distinct contrast to Western archery.

Suwon Chicken Street (수원 통닭거리), a lively and popular destination known for its famous fried chicken, or "tongdak".

The chicken is known for its crispy, golden exterior and juicy, tender meat, often served with a variety of sauces like spicy, soy-garlic, and sweet.


As you stroll along the street, the irresistible aroma of freshly fried chicken fills the air, creating a vibrant atmosphere. It's the perfect spot to enjoy a casual and authentic Korean meal. Pair your chicken with a refreshing beer or "maekju" for a true Chi-Maek experience, a beloved combination in Suwon. The lively ambiance and delicious food make Suwon Chicken Street a must-visit spot for any food lover.
