Hi, I’m Tabi!

Meet Gongju’s Baekje heritage at a fortress and museum. Plan the hillside walk and indoor visit as separate stops.

03 · YOUR FIRST WALK

Keep your first walk simple

Start on the first site’s open visitor paths, then check transfers and return times separately.

Check the walking route

Check actual distances and travel times on the map. This suggested walk is separate from your app movement record.

Before you set off

  • Check entry arrangements and return transport first.
  • Choose one stop to suit weather, slopes and local restrictions.
  • Respect private areas and photography rules; check food ingredients locally.
