    Being the cultural and economic hub of the southeastern part of Korea, Gwangju is worth visiting if you're interested in this country. Also, Gwangju is the best place in Korea that hosts and preserves historical heritages regarding the military/dictatorial government in the last century. You're strongly recommended to visit the former Jeonnam provincial office and Jeon Il Building to witness the history of brave Korean people.

    I stayed for two days and I think it was suitable for my needs. Make sure to go to Sajik Park and to the observatory there, sunset up there was so beautiful! Also there's a café so you can get a take-away coffee to the observatory deck and enjoy it there (or in the café if you prefer that, there are large windows with great views too). When you go in the evening, there are light installations in the park and reflected to the tower. Make sure to know basic Korean when you go to Gwangju or have a good translator since not everyone speaks English. I speak a bit of Korean so it was okay. T-Money card works well here and it's easy to get from the airport to the city by subway. If you are BTS ARMY like me, be sure to check out J-hope art in the Penguin Village and Gwangju Kpop Street!

    Gwangju is a city of culture, arts and history.

    Gwangju is a city of culture, arts and history. The people are kind and the food is great as well. Head to Yangrim-dong if you want a plenitude of cafes full of aesthetic. If you’re looking for places to eat, Dongmyeong-dong is where you should be. And Asia Culture Center is great to chill even after the sunset. The best part is that everything listed above is very close to each other. I visited Gwangju about 6 times and I can’t wait for the next. I love this city!

    Of all the street shopping areas I have visited so far, I really enjoyed Gwangju's Chungjang-ro. We also visited the May 18 memorial and public cemetery, which had great information about the democratization movement.

    We really appreciated the educational opportunities at places such as the 5.18 Archives, Liberty Park and Asian Cultural Center. For Americans.like us, learning.about the U.S. role in the military slaughter of Gwangju citizens in May 1980 was very important. The beauty of the Bamboo Forest and mountains nearby.was.stunning. Subway to the 5.18 Liberty Park (KDJ Convention Center stop) was easy enough to.figure out.

    Gwanbju is wonderfull city, but I had litle time to visit because I participate in Fina Masters. I eat all around between swimming pool and Prince hotel. It is easy only if you know whwre exactly leed bus lines. I could not find som kind of touristic card with bus lines, I found only card with metro line. After few day and big time to study Gwangju it was easier but stil fatiguant.

    When just checking the hotel the staff offered to carry my luggage into the hotel. The check in went fast and the main information got even pointed out with a written sign in English. The staff even welcomed me every day with an English phrase. The room was big enough and had even charging cables as well as a wireless charger and cleaning amenities. Even while staying at Downtown it was calm during the night.

    The Hotel was very easy to get to, close to a lot of amenities. The staff were very friendly and welcoming upon my arrival, greeting me by name and helping to bring my luggage to the room and explaining everything I needed to know. The room was amazing! very clean and spacious with everything I could ever need. I could have happily stayed in the room and never left during my entire stay in Gwangju!

    The best aspect of this hotel is the location. It is right in the middle of the shopping district, close to many attractions and easy to access. The breakfasts were good, with variety and fresh ingredients. The staff was very helpful, but often did not know ansers to simple questions. The room was very big, and the furniture was comfortable.
