Hanok Staying in 공주 한옥 마을



Once our international team stayed at 공주 한옥 마을 - Gongju Hanok village.
Hanok is traditional Korean house.

Information from wikipedia: Korean architecture lends consideration to the positioning of the house in relation to its surroundings, with thought given to the land and seasons.
The interior structure of the house is also planned accordingly. This principle is also called Baesanimsu (배산임수), literally meaning that the ideal house is built with a mountain in the back and a river in the front, with the ondol heated rock system for heating during cold winters and a wide daecheong (대청) front porch for keeping the house cool during hot summers.
Houses differ according to region. In the cold northern regions of Korea, houses are built in a closed square form to retain heat better. In the central regions, houses are 'L' shaped. Houses in the southernmost regions of Korea are built in an open 'I' form. Houses can also be classified according to class and social status. 


It was a first time for me to live in traditional house. To be honest, I thought that it might be something old-fashion)) But when we entered our room, I changed my mind. Look:

 I knew that there are no beds in traditional houses, so i was not surprised. But if you are not accustomed to sleep on the floor it might me hard for you.. What I iked the most is ondol - heating for the floor.
door to outside

 Even TV and phone were available)) We saw a  Korean show ( idon't remember the name)~
There were some drinks in the fridge.
wi-fi room
Wi-fi was available in the only room, where all teams were busy with making content and sns~~

So, it's not all cultural experience for those day!!
Do you know what is it?

It's traditional Korean game

It's not the easy (Ez4))) game~
A cafeteria was also looked as traditional house


We were served with very unusual dish that I have never seen, nothing to say about trying it!

Guess, what was inside?
Rice!!

One of the most delicious food I tried in Korea!



In conclusion I'd like to say that if someday you will have a chance to stay at hanok, don't loose this opportunity!! It's unique experiense for foreigners who wanna learn Korean culture deeper and feel the spirit of Korea~
