Hi, I’m Tabi!

Choose a performance venue and open lakeside spaces in Gwangju’s Seo-gu. Check current programmes and transport separately for Gwangju Performance Maru and Pungam Lake.

This guide covers places within Seo-gu, Gwangju, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.

01 · EXPLORE

Two places to begin

Two different places: start with whichever interests you.

A first-visit stop

Gwangju Performance Maru

光州公演マル

This performance venue is in Sangmu Citizens’ Park. The 2025 photograph shows its building from a distance. It does not imply a show is always running or that interiors are freely accessible; check programmes and admission conditions.

Getting there
Check the current approach and return transport on the map.

02

A first-visit stop

Pungam Lake

楓岩湖

Find walking spaces and resting areas around this urban lake. Current flower displays are not guaranteed. Avoid construction or closed sections, stay on open paths and do not descend to the water’s edge.

Getting there
Check the current approach and return transport on the map.

02 · A LITTLE BITE

What could you try?

Official tourism information introduces fried chicken and skate dishes at Yangdong Market in Seo-gu. These are not necessarily beside the venue or lake. Ask about fish, batter and seasonings, and check availability.

03 · YOUR FIRST WALK

Keep your first walk simple

Tabi suggests a short look around permitted visitor areas at the first stop, followed by a break. Check transport and access separately for the other destination.

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.
