Mokpo Night View Spot: Night Stroll at Gatbawi

Located near Peace Square by the seaside in Mokpo, "Gatbawi" is a landmark designated as a natural monument! The name comes from its unique appearance, where two rocks stand side by side resembling people wearing traditional Korean hats. This mystical spot offers a different atmosphere from sunrise to sunset and into the night.

Especially in the evening, Gatbawi is illuminated with soft lights, and the night view extends to the Yeongsan River estuary and the sea bridge. The scenery created by the sea and rocks bathed in sunset hues, along with the twinkling lights at night, makes it one of Mokpo's top photo spots. A 10-minute walk along the trail from the Peace Square Music Fountain will lead you there. On the sea bridge, you can enjoy the night sea breeze and the reflections of lights on the water, making anyone fall in love with Mokpo's night view.

Whether with family, a partner, or even alone, it’s a recommended evening-to-night stroll course!
