Hi, I’m Tabi!

Yongin is a large city offering traditional culture, museums and art. Choose the folk village or the Sanggal museum area first, planning other districts as separate outings.

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

Keep your first walk simple

Try Gyeonggi Provincial Museum → Nam June Paik Art Center in the Sanggal area, choosing just one exhibition if preferred. Check openings, and plan the folk village and Baekam 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

  • Choose a manageable area suited to weather, steps and path conditions.
  • Follow local photography and visitor rules; check food ingredients at the shop.
